Get Python code for algorithmic trading along with practical guidance from Jason Strimpel, founder of PyQuant News and a veteran of global trading and risk management. This highly practical book takes you from core algorithmic trading concepts and modern data acquisition to rigorous backtesting and strategy execution.Detailed recipes show you how to use the OpenBB Platform to source free equities, options, and futures data. Using that data, accelerate research with Parquet, Polars, DuckDB, and ArcticDB. You’ll engineer alpha factors with SciPy and statsmodels, using PCA to find latent factors, regression to hedge beta, and measure Fama-French exposures. Then optimize backtests with walk-forward analysis using VectorBT and build production-grade backtests with Zipline Reloaded. You’ll evaluate alpha with pro tools like Alphalens Reloaded and PyFolio and apply agentic AI workflows to automate research and code generation.For execution, you’ll connect to Interactive Brokers’ API to stream ticks, place and manage orders, retrieve portfolio state, and deploy strategies with monitoring and risk KPIs suitable for live trading. By the end of this book, you’ll not only understand the essentials, but you’ll also have the code templates and patterns to implement, evaluate, and operate Python-based algorithmic trading strategies.

Geospatial development links your data to places on the Earth's surface. Writing geospatial programs involves tasks such as grouping data by location, storing and analyzing large amounts of spatial information, performing complex geospatial calculations, and drawing colorful interactive maps. In order to do this well, you'll need appropriate tools and techniques, as well as a thorough understanding of geospatial concepts such as map projections, datums and coordinate systems.Python Geospatial Development - Second Edition teaches you everything you need to know about writing geospatial applications using Python. No prior knowledge of geospatial concepts, tools or techniques is required. The book guides you through the process of installing and using various toolkits, obtaining geospatial data for use in your programs, and building complete and sophisticated geospatial applications in Python.Python Geospatial Development teaches you everything you need to know about writing geospatial applications using Python.

It teaches you how to store and access spatial data using Python, how to perform a range of spatial calculations, and how to store spatial data in a database. Because maps are such an important aspect of geospatial programming, the book teaches you how to build your own “slippy map” interface within a web application, and finishes with the detailed construction of a geospatial data editor using Geodjango.Whether you want to write quick utilities to solve spatial problems, or develop sophisticated web applications based around maps and geospatial data, this book includes everything you need to know.
Python i Asyncio. Programowanie asynchroniczne
Caleb Hattingh
Programowanie współbieżne jest ważną techniką w tworzeniu nowoczesnych rozwiązań sieciowych. Programiści Pythona często w tym celu korzystają z wątków i mechanizmu wywłaszczania. Z tym że nie jest to optymalne rozwiązanie - z uwagi na ryzyko naruszenia bezpieczeństwa. Istnieje też możliwość programowania asynchronicznego z wykorzystaniem biblioteki asyncio, która została dodana w Pythonie 3.4. Złożoność API Asyncio budzi jednak obawy programistów Pythona, również biegle posługujących się tym językiem. Mimo to wysiłek włożony w zrozumienie działania Asyncio jest opłacalny, gdyż biblioteka ta pozwala na skuteczne rozwiązywanie problemów ze współbieżnym programowaniem sieciowym. Lektura tej książki ułatwi Ci pozbycie się obaw przed biblioteką asyncio. Zrozumiesz jej podstawowe elementy, co pozwoli Ci na rozpoczęcie programowania sterowanego zdarzeniami i prostą obsługę tysięcy jednoczesnych połączeń sieciowych. Dowiesz się, dlaczego Asyncio stanowi bezpieczniejszą alternatywę dla wielozadaniowości z wywłaszczaniem wątków, i dogłębnie zrozumiesz koncepcję programowania asynchronicznego. Następnie przeanalizujesz wprowadzone w Pythonie zmiany, dzięki którym możliwe jest programowanie asynchroniczne. Dowiesz się także, w jakich konkretnie sytuacjach biblioteka asyncio jest wyjątkowo użyteczna i których narzędzi należy wtedy używać. W książce pokazano najlepsze sposoby wykorzystania nowych możliwości Asyncio. W tej książce: porównanie programowania współbieżnego z wykorzystaniem Asyncio i wątków podstawy programowania bazującego na zdarzeniach możliwości Asyncio ważne dla programistów końcowych oraz twórców frameworków składnia async/await, w tym API koprocedur i klasy Future szczegółowe przypadki użycia kilku bibliotek zgodnych z Asyncio Programowanie asynchroniczne: nowa wizja bezpieczeństwa kodu Pythona!
Python Illustrated. Not another boring Python book, learn programming the fun way
Maaike van Putten, Imke van Putten
This is not your average Python programming book, because the world doesn’t need another one of those. Instead, it’s an illustrated, fun, and hands-on guide that treats learning Python like the adventure it should be. It’s designed especially for beginners who want to understand how code works without getting overwhelmed. You’ll be guided by a cheeky, know-it-all cat who’s surprisingly good at teaching Python from scratch. Don’t worry about going through it alone; a slightly moody dachshund dog is your study buddy, learning right alongside you. Each chapter introduces a core programming concept, explains it with a playful twist, and reinforces it through human-friendly examples, analogies, and exercises. Whether you’re a software professional or someone who’s never written a single line of code, this book will help you build real Python coding skills… and even enjoy the process (shocking, right?). Forget dry tutorials and walls of text. Python Illustrated speaks to visual learners, creative thinkers, cat lovers, dog lovers, and anyone who prefers their learning with a dash of humor. From writing your first function to understanding object-oriented programming, you’ll build a solid foundation in Python (without the usual headaches).
Python: Journey from Novice to Expert. Journey from Novice to Expert
Fabrizio Romano, Dusty Phillips, Rick van Hattem
Python is a dynamic and powerful programming language, having its application in a wide range of domains. It has an easy-to-use, simple syntax, and a powerful library, which includes hundreds of modules to provide routines for a wide range of applications, thus making it a popular language among programing enthusiasts.This course will take you on a journey from basic programming practices to high-end tools and techniques giving you an edge over your peers. It follows an interesting learning path, divided into three modules. As you complete each one, you’ll have gained key skills and get ready for the material in the next module.The first module will begin with exploring all the essentials of Python programming in an easy-to-understand way. This will lay a good foundation for those who are interested in digging deeper. It has a practical and example-oriented approach through which both the introductory and the advanced topics are explained. Starting with the fundamentals of programming and Python, it ends by exploring topics, like GUIs, web apps, and data science.In the second module you will learn about object oriented programming techniques in Python. Starting with a detailed analysis of object-oriented technique and design, you will use the Python programming language to clearly grasp key concepts from the object-oriented paradigm. This module fully explains classes, data encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, abstraction, and exceptions with an emphasis on when you can use each principle to develop well-designed software.With a good foundation of Python you will move onto the third module which is a comprehensive tutorial covering advanced features of the Python language. Start by creating a project-specific environment using venv. This will introduce you to various Pythonic syntax and common pitfalls before moving onto functional features and advanced concepts, thereby gaining an expert level knowledge in programming and teaching how to script highest quality Python programs.
