[For Quantopians] Fixing Lecturers Order

Hi All,

I think we need to re-order lecturers in the way beginner can just follow that from basic to advanced.

As currently the dependencies is wrong, for example

Lecture 10 - Instability of Estimates depends on Lecture 21 Confidence Intervals

Any thought ?

Hey Welly,

Agreed, the lectures page was set up in a much simpler time, and our series has far outgrown its original home. We're thinking about a solution for this, but don't have any immediate timeline. In the meantime you can most likely go through in order, even if dependencies are listed out of order. We tend to be a bit generous when listing dependencies. So whereas understanding confidence intervals is probably helpful for understanding estimate instability, it's not totally necessary.

Again, we hope to fix this, and are currently in early stages of thinking about a solution. Any recommendations are helpful.

Thanks. Really appreciated.

I think you can also put the book reference like quantitative investment analysis or other text book as reading reference. So it will be more deeper than just a presentation or slide or notebook.

Anyway. Good job on quantopian. Its really awesome
