Product Description
Limitations in today's software packages for financial modeling system development can threaten the viability of any system--not to mention the firm using that system. Modeling Financial Markets is the first book to take financial professionals beyond those limitations to introduce safer, more sophisticated modeling methods. It contains dozens of techniques for financial modeling in code that minimize or avoid current software deficiencies, and addresses the crucial crossover stage in which prototypes are converted to fully coded models.
From the Back Cover
A Step-by-Step Process for Reaching the Next Level of Sophistication--and Success--In Financial Modeling and Trading System Development
Financial markets professionals today must sort, analyze, and act upon incredible amounts of data. This has led to increasing reliance on computer-based risk management models. Limitations in popular software packages for financial modeling system development, however, can threaten the viability of any system--not to mention the firm using that system.
Modeling Financial Markets takes traders and money managers beyond those limitations by helping them design more consistent, sophisticated, and versatile modeling methods. This high-level, hands-on book features:
Guidelines for maneuvering around the Visual Basic.NET integrated development environment (IDE) and customizing it to improve your development efficiency
Dozens of innovative and useful techniques for financial modeling in code that minimize or avoid current software deficiencies
An approach for delivering an evaluation and specification prototype in Excel, one that is scalable into either VB.NET or another implementation language
The need for complex yet usable financial modeling systems has never been greater. Let Modeling Financial Markets help you progress beyond static modeling programs to more sophisticated system development processes, then implement those processes in your actual trading methodology.
"In a sense, this book marries four disciplines--computer science, quantitative finance, trading strategy and quality development--into one, financial engineering. It is about modeling financial instruments in code and putting the pieces, or models, together to create an automated trading or risk management system. Let's get started...
--From the Introduction
Human traders--using strategies that combine technical and fundamental indicators with gut instincts and market savvy--are quite possibly an endangered species. They are being replaced by quantifying trading systems capable of watching hundreds of securities and derivatives simultaneously and, at the exact second that conditions are most favorable, executing hundreds of strategies in a millisecond.
These systems, however, must still be designed and constructed by financial engineers. Modeling Financial Markets is today's most in-depth exploration of the Visual Basic.NET programming concepts that relate to research, testing, and implementation of pricing models, trading systems, and risk management systems. It provides innovative techniques for overcoming systemic shortcomings in Excel/VBA, along with insights and guidelines for managing the crucial, sink-or-swim crossover stage when prototypes are converted to fully coded models.
Virtually every vital tool needed to construct and implement a quantitative trading or risk management system is detailed, providing you with a basic understanding of:
Visual Basic.NET
Relational database design
Structured Query Language (SQL)
Extensible Markup Language (XML)
Financial industry protocol FIXML
Object Oriented programming (OOP)
Application Programming Interfaces (API) for optimization
API for market data feeds, trade entry, and trade fill information
Objects and collections to clean data
In sample / out of sample testing
Code for matrix algebra and multiple linear regression
Modeling Financial Markets builds several important financial topics from the ground up, and always places the emphasis on the implementation of systems in actual trading situations and arenas. Sophisticated yet written and arranged for easy understanding and implementation, it is the first book to take finance professionals beyond the limitations of today's software and processes to introduce safer, more effective, and more accurate financial modeling methods.
