Quantopian Live Webinar: "The Good, the Bad, and the Correlated" on July 16th at 12pm EDT

posted Jul 10, 2015

Finding things that have moved similarly in the past can be a key part of predicting how things will move in the future. However, like most analysis techniques, correlation can fail when certain underlying conditions are not met.

Join us for "The Good, the Bad, and the Correlated" on July 16th at 12pm EDT, where Delaney Granizo-Mackenzie, Quantopian engineer, will cover correlation, how it is used in finance, and how you can use it to improve your trading algorithms.

We have posted clone-able notebooks and algorithms to go along with this lecture here.
