Description
Unlock the power of Artificial Intelligence in the world of trading.

In this hands-on course, you’ll learn how to build, train, and backtestAI-driven algorithmic trading strategiesusing Python, machine learning, and deep learning tools. Whether you're from finance or tech, this course will help you turn market data into actionable trading signals using LSTM models, sentiment analysis, and advanced evaluation metrics.

You’ll begin with the basics of algorithmic trading, explore the role of AI, and dive deep into tools likeRandom Forest, Gradient Boosting, CNNs, LSTM, Reinforcement Learning, Genetic Algorithms, andEnsemble Methods. From there, you’ll move into real-world implementation — loading historical stock data, creating predictive features, labeling outcomes, handling class imbalance with focal loss, and evaluating your trading strategy throughbacktesting and risk metrics like Sharpe Ratio and Drawdown.

This course includes:

Real Apple stock data for hands-on practice

Feature engineering using technical indicators

Custom loss functions likeFocal Loss

Building anLSTMmodel from scratch

Visualizing trading signals and performance

Backtesting with capital growth simulations

By the end, you’ll walk away with a fully functional trading strategy powered by AI — plus the knowledge to apply these techniques across any stock, ETF, or crypto asset.
