Learn Algo Trading with Python | All Episodes | BTS |

Hi everyone :wave:

We’ve received numerous requests from traders expressing a strong interest in learning about algorithmic trading, but they often face challenges due to a lack of proper resources to get started. While algo trading is gaining traction, the availability of comprehensive learning materials remains limited, leaving many key areas unexplored.

A common piece of advice for those interested in learning coding is to begin with Python. Through conversations with traders at our offline and in-office events, we discovered that many of them paved their way into algo trading by starting with Python. Interestingly, a significant number of these individuals didn’t have a background in computer science—what drove them was their passion for the markets. As they worked to translate their trading strategies into automated systems, many found themselves falling in love with coding along the way.

To help bridge this knowledge gap, we’ve partnered with Tradehull, a leading institute in systematic algo trading education. Together, we’ve launched a new video series on our YouTube channel, DhanHQ.

Check out the first episode here, with tutor @Tradehull_Imran .
