Best Online Course for Learning Quant Trading?

Hi everyone, I've read through most of the intro resources on Quantopian, but I was wondering if anyone here has recommendations for online courses that focus on Quant Trading? I found one class called Algorithmic Trading Strategies on Experfy that seems like the best option right now. Has anyone taken this class before?

Hello Jeffery,

We've put a lot of resources into developing a hands-on, interactive quantitative finance curriculum. It's all free and built so that you learn the theory while trying examples. Because it's built in Python you can make changes to the lecture code, copy paste it out, or use it as the basis for your projects. We appreciate feedback so if the lecture series doesn't work for you please let us know why.

We also have some evidence that doing many of the lectures is linked to producing strategies that pass our first step for potentially receiving and allocation, so we believe that we're teaching the right material to actually be successful as a quant.
