  1. Algorithmic Trading.

  2. Introduction Algorithmic Trading (also called automated trading, black-box trading, or algo-trading) uses a computer program that follows a defined set of instructions (an algorithm) to place a trade. The trade, in theory, can generate profits at a speed and frequency that is impossible for a human trader. The defined sets of instructions are based on timing, price, quantity, or any mathematical model. Apart from profit opportunities for the trader, algo-trading renders markets more liquid and trading more systematic by ruling out the impact of human emotions on trading activities.

  3. Top 12 Essential Beginner Books for Algorithmic Trading

  4. LIAR’S POKER by MICHAEL LEWIS Liar's Poker is a non-fiction, semi-autobiographical book by Michael Lewis describing the author's experiences as a bond salesman on Wall Street during the late 1980s. 2.

CONNOLLY Those who want to build automatic algorithms using options are going to need a good understanding of the strategy of trading volatility.In the book, you will find all the theoretical foundations of this type of trading, and there is enough information in it to build HFT algorithms.

  6. 7. ART OF WAR by SUN TZU The book is the perfect guide to beat the opponents in various conflict situations.

According to the author, the art of war is based on the two most important instruments of warfare, which are tactics and strategies, applying which you will win before the “boiling point” of the conflict. 8. WAY OF TURTLE by CURTIS FAITH Richard Dennis was the initiator of the experiment. Two traders in the 1980s argued with each other for $ 1, which can be taken from the street person (“turtle”) and teach him to trade.There was a contest of 1200 people. Of these, 24 people were selected. They were showed one model. For two years, these people earned 200 million dollars, in 1986, not having a computer, not having almost nothing.

It is worth noting that this is the only technical analysis book recommended by Peter Brandt, a legendary trader with 40 years’ experience.Although Brandt himself has strained relations with some representatives of the crypto-community, who consider him a deceiver, because he called the crypt market a bubble, Brandt correctly predicted the growth of Bitcoin when his course was only around $ 800.He managed to sell his cryptocurrency at the rate of $ 18,000 for Bitcoin, proving the power of classic charting. 12. INSIDER BUY SUPERSTOCKS by JESSIE STINE Stine was able to make a fortune in a regular market, which is rarely found outside of modern forex and crypto banking.
