Taking on Wall Street: A Comparative Study of Strategies Sourced from "The Pr...Quantopian
A unique set of data comprised of strategy returns sourced through traditional means from managers (“the pros”) and from strategies developed on Quantopian’s platform (“the crowd”) is analyzed. We detect distinct groups of strategy styles within the data: In particular, some "crowd" strategies fall into their own clusters distinct from those within the "pro" data set. A few do overlap as well. We go on to analyze the various strategy groups with respect to environmental conditions and risk factors (among other relevant features), teasing out differences in trading styles.
Ultimately we judge how well “the crowd” is doing so far, in terms of being able to compete with the established managers not only in terms of performance but also with respect to risk management and overall novelty and diversification in the trading styles that have emerged. Finally we address general notions (and pitfalls) of building meta strategies from manager return streams.

In an ideal world an investor has access to a range of investment opportunities that allow her to create a Balanced portfolio based on her risk/return objectives. Unfortunately we don't live an in ideal world and a lot of the investment opportunities have only been available to the Institutional Investor. That trend has started to change as technology and innovation by startups like AngelList, Wealthfront, and Sliced Investing, among others are lowering the barrier to access and allowing more individuals to create a balanced portfolio that meets their investment objectives. In this talk we'll focus on the need for a balanced portfolio, the investing tools for the 'new-age' investor and the future of individual investing.

From QuantCon 2017: Lookahead bias and stale data when used in an algorithm are generally categorized as "incorrect data". In fact, the issue does not lie with the data itself, but instead is an issue of perspective. This talk will examine how data is typically viewed through the lens of time, and why, on the whole, that approach is wrong.
At Quantopian, we've tried several ways of handling data with regards to time, and we'll talk about lessons learned along the way. We'll also discuss what multidimensionality means for financial data specifically, and how we can apply this to get better results in backtesting.
Additionally, we'll touch on how to apply multidimensionality to more general data, and why it's important for anyone working with applied data to take this approach.

Data Modeling the Stock Market Today - Common Pitfalls to Avoid
The lure of creating models to predict the stock market has drawn talent from fields beyond finance and economics, reaching into disciplines such as physics, computational chemistry, applied mathematics, electrical engineering and perhaps most recently statistics and what we now refer to as data science. The attraction is clear - the stock market (and the economy/internet at large) throws off massive and ever increasing reams of data from garden variety time-series to complex structured data sets like quarterly financials, to unstructured data sets like conference call transcripts, news articles and of course — tweets! While all this data holds promise - it also holds traps and blind alleys that can be deceptively tricky to avoid. In this session we’ll review some of the common (but not easy!) pitfalls to avoid in creating models for predicting stock returns; overfitting & exploding model complexity, non-stationary processes, time-travel illusions, under-estimation of real-world costs, and as many more as we have time to cover.
Being open (source) in the traditionally secretive field of quant finance.Quantopian
The field of quantitative finance is intensely competitive and maniacally secretive as a rule. The tendency toward secrecy is perhaps unsurprising given that the smallest of competitive advantages can translate to substantial profits. Indeed, over the past decade a growing list of legal prosecutions for alleged code theft or misuse have underscored how high the stakes can be for developers looking to leverage and contribute to open source projects. Notable exceptions to this approach include work from Wes McKinney and Travis Oliphant, whose work on open source projects like pandas and numpy, which have gained widespread adoption. In this talk we will review some of the costs and benefits of engaging with open source as a “two way street” and frame the modern quant workflow as a mosaic of open sourced, third party, and proprietary components.
"Build Effective Risk Management on Top of Your Trading Strategy" by Danielle...Quantopian
Presented at QuantCon Singapore 2016, Quantopian's quantitative finance and algorithmic trading conference, November 11th.
Risk management is an essential but often overlooked prerequisite to success in trading. No one would like to see their substantial profits generated over his lifetime of trading just vanishing over a few bad trades.
In this talk, Danielle will discuss a quantitative understanding of risk. She will then share a few techniques in risk management, with a case study to show how a proper risk management system helps improve the overall performance of trading strategies.
"A Framework-Based Approach to Building Quantitative Trading Systems" by Dr. ...Quantopian
Contrary to popular wisdom the difference between a retail quant trader and a professional portfolio manager is not in "having better trade entry and exit rules". Rather it is the difference in how each approaches the concepts of portfolio optimisation and risk management.
Both of these topics are synonymous with heavy math, which can be off-putting for beginner retail systematic traders. Hence, it can be extremely daunting for those without institutional experience to know how to turn a set of trading rules into a robust portfolio and risk management system.
In this talk, Mike will discuss how to take a typical retail quant strategy and place it in a professional quantitative trading framework, with proper position sizing and risk assessment, without resorting to pages of formulas or the need to have a PhD in statistics!

Portfolio construction today - Cliff Asness, Managing & Founding Principal, AQR Capital Management
Presented at the third annual Insight Summit conference held on 7 November 2017 by London Business School’s AQR Asset Management Institute.
In All About Factors, we cover the basics of what factors are, where we expect them to derive their excess returns from, their advantages and disadvantages and if there is indeed any merit to this approach or if it just another Wall Street marketing gimmick.
After covering the commonly accepted factors basics, we discuss expectations for factor investing, the theory as to why short-term pain must be present for long-term return, and some key considerations in moving from the academic research to creating investible portfolios.
Also explored is the current on-going debate between industry titans Rob Arnott (Research Affiliates) and Cliff Asness (AQR) as to the efficacy of using valuation-based spreads to time factor exposures.
Lastly, we look at some different methods that a retail investor can utilize smart-beta investing, by highlighting some of the current industry techniques for diversifying factor exposures and building a multi-factor portfolio.
The Sustainable Active Investing Framework: Simple, but Not Easy by Wesley Gr...Quantopian
To some, the debate of passive versus active investing is akin to Eagles vs. Cowboys or Coke vs. Pepsi. In short, once our preference for one style over the other is established is can become so overwhelming that it becomes a proven fact or incontrovertible reality in our minds.
We cannot overemphasize that alpha in the market is no cakewalk. More importantly, being smart, having superior stockpicking skills, or amassing an army of PhDs to crunch data is only half of the equation. Even with those tools, you are still only one shark in a tank filled with other sharks. All sharks are smart, all sharks have a MBA or PhD from a fancy school, and all the sharks know how to analyze a company. Maintaining an edge in these shark infested waters is no small feat, and one that only a handful (e.g., we can count them in one hand) of investors has successfully accomplished.
In order too achieve sustainable success as an active investing, one needs both skill and an understanding of human psychology and market incentives (behavioral finance). We start our journey where mine began: as an aspiring PhD student studying under Eugene Fama at the University of Chicago. Let the adventure begin...

Yesterday, laxy appeat on EC LIVE, a television show produced for the students, faculty and staff on the EU campurs and the local communities. Samantha Salvertongue is the host of EC UVVE, and one of Professor Iry's former students. The following is a transcript of the interview. Unfortunately the software that transcribes the interview into written form failed to understand several words and phrases used in the interview. To complete the transcript and demonstrate your knowledge of the risks and returns of investing. please select the best answer from each dropdown menu. SAMANTHA: Good morning, Professor Imvest-a-Lot. I'd Like to welcome you to EC LIVE, and thank you for coming in today to offer us insights into the basics of investing. I remember your course well, and while my grades didn't always reflect great success, I was always very interested in the material and the possibility of using the concepts and technques when the opportunities arose. 1ZYt Good morning, Samantha, and please call me, Irry. Thank you for the invitation to discuss one of the important fundamentals to sound imvesting: an apprecation of the relationship between the objective or outcome of your investment, that is its and the likehiood of receiving it, or the investment's. SAMANIHA: Let's begin with a generalization regarding the financial markets. Hew are people buying and selling investments in the financial markets generally assumed to react to risk? And, how do the markets define "risk"? IZYr Rusk is best thought of as the potential for variability in the investment's outcomes. This means that if an investment has the potential to provide only one possible outcome or return, then it is while if there is more than one possible return or result, then the asset should be considered This is why securities sold by the U.S. Treasury have historically been considered to be the securities in the world; because except in the event of the failure of the U.S. government, any investor holding a Treasury security would receive the security's face volue upon its maturity. Most investors have an expected outcome associated with an investment, and risk refers to the potential for receiving an outcome or return that is greater of less than his or her expected return. It is not surprising that investors receiving investment returns that exceed their expected return, but they tend to respond differently if the imvestment can generate a lower return. This potential for outcome is the risk on which most irvestors focus. In general, the majority of investors, or those buying and selling secunities, are assumed to be This does not mean that they won't purchase or sell risky securibes or projects, it simply means that they be compensated with a risk premuium or additional return for taking on p.

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?
Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.
