Using only conceptual diagrams, this course should cater to all investors from beginners to experts.

We will also use simple short videos to explain the concepts behind some proven quantitative strategies used by hedge funds. This will provide a good introduction for you to move on to our quantitative strategy courses. We will also look at the real-world performance of these quantitative strategies in the year 2020 which included a once-in-a-century crisis.
