This book is great. It contains everything in detail and describes the basic structure of an Alpha Model. Much better than Chen’s Quantitative Finance. Chen’s book is crap Rating: 5 / 5

I have not actually read the book yet. But I just finished editing a (very) long interview with him and Larry Connors TradingMarkets.Om otherwise, Narang makes an incredible job of making some other tricky concepts quite easy to understand. I have been involved in the trade since 2000 and constantly struggle to explain what it is I write about people who are often quite intelligent, but just do not understand what hedge funds do strategically (a ridiculous amount of people I know think it’s all about the inside information, for example). When you hear that there are lots of ways to make (or lose) money trading Narang do as good a job as anyone explain why this is. Rating: 5 / 5

It’s all qualitative and a good book for people who want to understand the idea behind Black Box trading without getting into the quantitative details of any strategier.Betyg: 5 / 5
