Editorial Review: Product Description: Harnessing the Power of Quantitative Techniques to Create a Winning Trading ProgramLars Kestner Quantitative Trading Strategies takes readers through the development and evaluation stages of today's most popular and market-proven technical trading strategies. Quantifying every subjective decision in the trading process, this analytical book evaluates the work of well-known "quants" from John Henry to Monroe Trout and introduces 12 all-new trading strategies. It debunks numerous popular misconceptions, and is certain to make waves--and change minds--in the world of technical analysis and trading. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - CAIA should reconsider this book for their programI know this book because it is one of CAIA required reading for level 2 exam under the topic of quantitative trading strategies.

Rating: - Very disappointing It really depends upon how you interpret the three title words. I have to agree with others here. An author should keep in mind her reputation first before collecting money from book buyers. Rating: - Not substantive enoughI must agree with reviewer Ira Balli from London below. This book lacks substantive information regarding the quantitative methods and therefore is merely an introduction to quant ideas that have been discussed in the marketplace. Of course, anyone who might have proprietary and successful quant methods would be foolhardly to disclose them, so one should not expect that from any public writer. As an alternative, some of the chapters covering quant strategies in "Trade Like a Hedge ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
