Inside the Black Box - A Simple Guide to Quantitative and High-Frequency Trading
2014, 225 pages, by Kevin J. Davey
If you ever wanted to start developing your own trading systems/methodologies, this is a great book.
This book is for those who have the “programmer/developer” soul within… It will not teach you how to literally program a robot, but it will teach you all the steps required to build a successful automated trading system. It also has several sections on how can you prepare yourself to “live” from the “market”…
Some topics from the book:
- How to apply Historical Backtesting
- Out-of-Sample testing.
- Walk-Forward analysis.
- Monte Carlo simulation.
- How will you Enter a market.
- How will Exit a market.
- Timeframes.
- Position sizing.
- Incubation period.
- Live trading.
Even if you are searching for methodologies to trade in manual mode, this book can help you to filter out and teach you the correct way to assess your studies and searches for the “perfect” algorithm…

If you like my true honesty in reviewing the books I read and would like me to read and review a book that is on your radar but you are reluctant to spend that amount of money, let me know… On the other side of the Moon, I will really appreciate it if you purchase a book that you loved through my Amazon Links, that way I can purchase all the books (good and bad) to review for you guys…
