Presented at QuantCon Singapore 2016, Quantopian's quantitative finance and algorithmic trading conference, November 11th.
Machine learning is improving facets of our lives as diverse as health screening, transportation and even our entertainment choices. It stands to reason that machine learning can also improve trading performance, however the practical application is fraught with pitfalls and obstacles that nullify the benefits and present a high barrier to entry. Building on background information and introductory material, Kris will propose a framework for efficient and robust experimentation with machine learning methods for algorithmic trading. The framework's objective is to arrive at parsimonious models whose positive past performance is unlikely to be due to chance. The framework is demonstrated via practical examples of various machine learning models for algorithmic trading.
