Ask HN: Teach Myself Algorithmic Trading?

2•romesmoke•5mo ago
This summer I got my PhD in computer engineering. I have saved enough money to survive the next 6 months unemployed. I want to invest that time in serious preparation to become an algorithmic trader. If I manage to make consistent money, I'll stick. Else I'll apply to hedge funds/prop shops.

Current reading list arranged by topic below. Any further suggestions/advice? Thanks!

Culture: The Man Who Beat the Market, A Man for All Markets, Market Wizards, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

Finance basics: CFA Prerequisites, Trading & Exchanges (Larry Harris), Wilmott, Hull

Mathematics: Chris Bishop's books (ML/DL/probability), E. T. Jayne's book, David Mackay's Information theory book, Shreve's Stochastic Calculus books

Algo trading: Robert Carver, Ernest Chan

Thanks! Have these actively helped you? There's too much noise around this business...
Rotundo•5mo ago
After reading enough to get started, I realized I wasn't comfortable to invest this way. Too volatile for me, I have a nervous disposition.

Can you program? If you aren't already proficient, learn hardware description languages, like Verilog and VHDL.
romesmoke•5mo ago
I'm comfortable with Rust. Why the HW focus? I've heard about FPGAs being used for HFT, but I'm not going for sub-ms frequencies--except if it's unavoidable.
