The Quant Trading Playbook: Data, Bots, and the New Rules of the Market

The Quant Trading Playbook strips away the hype to reveal what algorithmic trading actually looks like under the hood. You'll learn how quants gather and clean data, design strategies, and build bots that execute trades—but also why most retail algorithmic traders lose money and how to think about risk before you ever write a line of code. This book walks you through the entire lifecycle of a quant system: from sourcing market signals and backtesting on historical data to managing drawdowns, avoiding overfitting, and navigating the psychological traps that sink even the best strategies. No promises of passive income or guaranteed returns—just a clear-eyed look at the tools, the math, and the discipline required to compete in modern markets. Whether you're a curious beginner or a seasoned developer, you'll come away with a practical framework for evaluating strategies, understanding slippage and latency, and knowing when to walk away.
