Abstract: The AHL team will be discussing how they use their Python based research platform to research quantitative trading systems. There will also be a real life Python demo, illustrating how they use it in practice.

There will also be a demo from Saeed Amen (from Thalesians), showing how to use Python to investigate the properties of intraday FX volatility, where he'll be accessing live market data via Bloomberg and also creating customised plots using Matplotlib (see below).
