Artificial Intelligence for Trading Written by Shrim Garg

Artificial Intelligence is an ever-growing profession and also one of the most impactful divisions as it works at the crossroads of machine learning, cognitive intelligence, mathematics, and last but not the least, statistics. So, the most fundamental question we need to ask ourselves is what exactly is algorithmic trading. Algorithmic trading generally uses a computer program that follows a series of predefined directions to make a deal. In theory, the trade generates profits at a rate and frequency that a manual trader cannot complement since the algorithm makes trades using functions from advanced mathematics and does that round the clock, something which manual trader cannot compete with. AI trading systems are now set to usher in the second wave of innovation, the most momentous in the history of finance.
