About

About Quant Python Algorithms

A free course that teaches Python from zero through algorithms, with every example and problem drawn from quantitative finance and trading. The goal is a learner ready for a junior quant-developer interview.

Not financial advice

Everything here is educational. The prices are synthetic, generated by a program, and the tickers are invented. Nothing in the course is a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any investment, and the strategies it builds are exercises, not advice.
