Introduction

Typically, a strategy is motivated by a theme or style of trading. 

The objective is to minimize either absolute or risk-adjusted costs relative to a benchmark. 

For strategies with mathematically defined objectives, an optimization is performed to determine how to best use the strategy to maximize a trader's or ptf manager's utility. 

A trade schedule (or trajectory) is planned for strategies with a target quantity of shares to execute. 

The order placement engine (= the microtrader) translates from a strategy's broad objectives to individual orders.

User-defined input parameters control the trade schedule and order placement strategy.

The NEW website is OUT! 

Go have a look at https://www.derivativesacademy.com.

You will find the content in the 'Derivatives Academy' section in a book format. 
The full content is not yet available as I am rewriting it and improving it.

You can try the Exotic Derivatives pricer under the 'Derivatives Pricer' section (https://www.derivativesacademy.com/derivatives-pricer/). I will speed up the page soon as I forgot to compress some images.
Each application allows you to price differents products and contains links towards the correct section of the book. 
You will then be able to get practical and theoretical knowledge quite easily.

I teach quite often using the pricer. You can get so much information and answers to your questions thanks to it.

Take advantage of it as much as you can to hone your knowledge!
