Robo trader will begin production shortly. I bet you are wondering, “What the hell is a robo trader?”. Robo trader will be my own personal trading assistant. What began as an idea has now developed into something more. I am in the process of building my first automated trading system. This will be the start of what will eventually become a high performance computer system who’s sole function will be running software that I will develop to maximize trading profits with unique strategies that exploit arbitrage in markets.
Some books to help me on the way.
- The Evaluation and Optimization of Trading Strategies
- Building Automated Trading Systems: With an Introduction to Visual C++.NET 2005
- New Trading Systems and Methods
- The Encyclopedia of Trading Strategies
- Mechanical Trading Systems: Pairing Trader Psychology with Technical Analysis
- Modeling Maximum Trading Profits with C++: New Trading and Money Management Concepts
