QuantYog Courses
We have 3 courses dedicated to Quant Research and Portfolio Management. The courses are designed such that each delivers a real-world outcome. It is not necessary to do all courses, nor is it necessary to do all of them in quick succession. Every course batch includes 5 hours per week of lectures.
| Course Name | Real-world Outcome |
|---|---|
| Essentials (6 weeks) | Backtesting & Ideation: Backtesting market patterns and strategies using statistical methods to take advantage of these patterns; and carefully assessing their results to target a tradable Sharpe ratio above 1. This process is the starting point for generating new ideas, much like the work done by Quant Researchers at hedge funds |
| Foundations (8 weeks) | Advanced Strategies & Ideation: Backtesting strategies with advanced statistical methods to improve adaptability to different market conditions. Advanced insights in ideation and diversification of strategies to target a tradable Sharpe ratio above 1.5 |
| Professional (3 months) | Execution, Order Management & Portfolio Management: Mastering key areas of systematic trading beyond backtesting, such as portfolio allocation, risk management, and trade execution. Understanding how advanced portfolio allocation and execution techniques can deliver alpha - aiming for portfolios with a tradable Sharpe above 2 Creating comprehensive quantitative strategies using statistical methods to optimize diversification, smooth out signals, and take advantage of well-known market factors - skills typically found in Portfolio Managers at hedge funds |

The course added more to my understanding of building Quant trading strategies than my $100,000 Financial Engineering degree. It was highly practical and to the point. I look forward to future courses!

Way more practical than CQF or EPAT. No fluff! Just sharp market insights, taught by real Quants. The content is clean, the community is active, and the Founder's personal involvement makes a big difference. Incredible value.
