About the AlgoTrading101 program

AlgoTrading101 started as a response to the many get-rich-quick schemes and shady trading courses around.

We wanted to build a program that tells us the honest truth about trading, and teaches the core concepts and skills required to succeed. Essentially, we wanted to create something we wished we had when we started trading.

In 2014, AlgoTrading101 began as a side-project. We had hundreds of sign ups on the first day of launch, one thing led to another, and here we are now.
