Study Notes

Algorithmic Trading Defined

  • Computer programs are used to execute trade orders.
  • An algorithm dictates how trades are placed based on timing, price, quantity, or mathematical models.
  • Also known as "Algo Trading" or "Black-Box Trading"

Benefits of Algorithmic Trading

  • Transaction costs are reduced.
  • Trade orders are executed at optimal prices.
  • The chance of manual errors in trading decreases.
  • The speed and accuracy of trade execution increases.
  • Backtesting is leveraged.
  • Emotional and psychological biases in trading are reduced.
  • Ultimately leads to increased profit potential.

Trend Following Strategies

  • Utilize historical data
  • Used for moving averages
  • Used for Price breakouts
  • Used for Channel breakouts

Arbitrage Opportunities

  • Capitalize on pricing inefficiencies of securities across different markets or formats.
  • Profiting by purchasing a stock on one exchange while simultaneously selling it on another at a higher price.

Index Fund Rebalancing

  • Adjust fund holdings to mirror the weighting of an underlying index.
  • Algorithms are used to automatically rebalance fund holdings to match the index.

Mathematical Model Based Strategies

  • Regression models are leveraged.
  • Time Series analysis is used.
  • Machine learning techniques are applied.

Execution Algorithms

  • Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) is used.
  • Time Weighted Average Price (TWAP) is used.
  • Implementation Shortfall (IS) is used.

Common Tools & Platforms

  • Python
  • Matlab
  • R
  • Trading Technologies
  • Bloomberg
  • Refinitiv

Potential Issues of Algorithmic Trading

  • Technical Glitches can occur.
  • Model decay may happen over time.
  • Over-optimization of strategies can be detrimental.
  • Data mining bias can skew results.
  • Market regime changes can affect performance.
  • Regulatory risks exist.
