Description

This web application provides hyper-realistic and interactive simulations for trading algorithms. With a philosophy that "seeing is believing", every transaction, calculation, and event is logged live as the algorithm runs. This provides a superior user experience because the user can literally see the algorithm in action, allowing for a greater understanding of the algorithm's behaviour, strengths, and weaknesses. The main driver behind this magic comes from the Zipline Live Trading Engine developed by Quantopian, an educational platform for learning quantitative finance. Some of the algorithms found on this site are inspired by the research efforts and journals shared by the community of Quantopian. The stock pricing data is sourced from the Quandl WIKI API, which is available for free for anyone with a Quandl account.
