Trading Algorithms for the Masses

What is quantitative trading?

  • Quantitative trading is an extremely sophisticated area of finance
  • It has four main components:
    1. Strategy Identification - Finding a strategy, exploiting an edge and deciding on trading frequency
    2. Strategy Backtesting - Obtaining data, analysing strategy performance and removing biases
    3. Execution System - Linking to a brokerage, automating the trading and minimizing transaction costs
    4. Risk Management - Optimal capital allocation, "bet size" criterion and trading psychology

VICE is the best by such a commanding margin that you really needn't look elsewhere. Open source and has the largest community.

However, other options are:

  • CCS64, Lots of features, but I found it to be painfully slow. Shareware.
  • Hoxs64. Decent, but not as full-featured as VICE. The ML monitor seems nice.
  • Frodo is pretty outdated and the author admits as much.
  • micro64 seems promising but incomplete.
