Dear readers & clients,
I would like to use this space to thank you all for your kind support in the year 2021. I am really proud of my whole team for their work. We are fulfilling our primary mission to process academic research related to quant&algo trading to a more user-friendly form. And we will do it even better in 2022, so stay tuned 🙂
Five new strategies have been added.
Ten new related research papers have been included into existing strategy reviews and two short free blog posts have been published during last few weeks.
Plus, five trading strategies have been backtested in QuantConnect in the previous two weeks.
As usual, at this time of the year, let us do a short recapitulation of posts on our blog in the previous 12 months. We have published nearly 70 short analyses of academic papers and our own research articles on this blog in 2021. We want to use this opportunity to summarize 10 of them, which were the most popular (based on the Google Analytics tool). Maybe you will be able to find something you have not read yet …
Grid trading is an automated currency trading strategy where an investor creates a so-called “price grid”. The basic idea of the strategy is to repeatedly buy at the pre-specified price and then wait for the price to rise above that level and then sell the position (and vice versa with shorting and covering). We will explore the basics and show favorable and unfavorable scenarios in the first article about this trading style. Later articles will dig deeper and investigate how Grid trading is related to other systematic trading strategies.

NFTs are taking the cryptocurrency trading world by storm. NFTs stand for the non-fungible tokens which have emerged as another possible usage of blockchain technology. NFT can be used to record/verify/track the ownership of a unique – hence the non-fungible asset. Commonly, NFTs are connected with art (visual art, music, etc.), but there are also several decentralized finance or gaming-related projects.
Same as for the other blockchain-related projects, the critics are easy to find, so a research paper with hard data concerning the NFTs can be of great importance. The research paper by Mazur (2021) studies the NFT startups traded in the crypto markets. Therefore, the paper does not analyze the individual NFTs (such as some piece of art), but rather the whole projects and their tokens traded on the Binance crypto exchange.
We’ve already analysed tens of thousands of financial research papers and identified more than 700 attractive trading systems together with hundreds of related academic papers.
