Machine Learning in Trading and Finance {New York Institute of Finance}

Colleagues, the Machine Learning in Trading and Finance program from the New York Institute of Finance and Google Cloud will train you in quantitative trading, pairs trading, and momentum trading. You will be able to design basic quantitative trading strategies, build machine learning models using Keras and TensorFlow, build a pair trading strategy prediction model and back test it, and build a momentum-based trading model and back test it. You should have advanced competency in Python programming and familiarity with pertinent libraries for machine learning, such as Scikit-Learn, StatsModels, and Pandas. Training modules include: 1) Introduction to Quantitative Trading and TensorFlow - key components that are common to every trading strategy, no matter how complex, 2) Training neural networks with Tensorflow 2 and Keras, 3) Build a Momentum-based Trading System - traders buy or sell assets according to the strength of recent price trends. Price momentum is similar to momentum in physics, where mass multiplied by velocity determines the persistence with which an object will follow its current path (like a heavy train on a track). Momentum traders bet that an asset price that is moving strongly in a given direction will continue to move in that direction until the trend loses strength or reverses, and 4) Build a Pair Trading Strategy Prediction Model - discuss what pairs trading is, and how you can make money doing it.

Deep Learning with TensorFlow (Application of Neural Networks)

Colleagues, the Deep Learning with TensorFlow - Applications of Deep Neural Networks to Machine Learning Tasks program brings machine-learning to life with interactive demos from the most popular Deep Learning library, TensorFlow, and its high-level API, Keras. Essential theory is whiteboarded to provide an intuitive understanding of Deep Learning’s underlying foundations, i.e., artificial neural networks plus provided Python-based Jupyter notebooks. This intermediate-level program includes over 6 hours of instruction. Learn to Build Deep Learning models in TensorFlow and Keras, Interpret the results of Deep Learning models, Troubleshoot and improve Deep Learning models. Skill-based training modules include: 1)  Introduction to Deep Learning - overview of deep learning, its roots in artificial neural networks, and the breadth of transformative applications it produces and builds an introductory neural network, 2) How Deep Learning Works - main families of deep neural networks and their applications, shows you deep learning in action via a web application called the TensorFlow Playground, 3) Convolutional Networks - construct a deep network. This lesson builds upon those theoretical foundations to build more effective deep nets, gain an understanding of convolutional layers and how they can be stacked to solve increasingly complex problems with larger data sets. In order to make sense of the outputs from these sophisticated models, the TensorBoard result-visualization tool is used, 4) Introduction to TensorFlow - leading Deep Learning libraries are compared, and then you get down to business with TensorFlow, the open-source library doing the heavy neural network-lifting underneath Keras and build your own deep learning models in TensorFlow, and 5) Improving Deep Networks - tune model hyperparameters and create a deep learning project as well as outlining resources for further self-study.
