Claude for Algo Trading: Free Live Webinar

**Register Here: https://www.quantinsti.com/claude-ai-trading-webinar-18-aug-2026**

Ever wondered whether algorithmic trading is within reach without a deep technical background? Join us for a free, live, 1-hour walkthrough where we put that question to the test on screen.
Ishan Shah and Sanya Modi of QuantInsti will use Claude, Anthropic's AI assistant, to turn a plain-English trading idea into a systematic, testable strategy, working on a real trading task in real time. No slide deck. A working demonstration, followed by an open Q&A where you can ask anything about the tool, the process, and trading.

AGENDA

• Part 1: Claude as a research partner. How an AI assistant fits into a trader's day, where it genuinely saves time in the research loop, where a human stays in charge, and how to set sensible expectations before relying on any AI output.

• Part 2: Live demo, idea to ranked opportunities. Describing a trading idea and watching it take shape in real time, working with real market data across a set of instruments, and reading a ranked, explainable view of what the analysis found.

• Part 3: From idea to a testable strategy, plus Q&A. What separates a one-off idea from a systematic, testable strategy, how to keep a strategy under review once it is live, and an open floor for your questions.
