How Open Source, Open Data and the Cloud are Reshaping Finance Education and the Financial Industry

Description

It is not that long ago, that access to financial tools, e.g. for technical analysis, and access to quality financial data has been restricted to big institutions and those with deep pockets. We have come a long way since. Today, every student interested in financial markets can start his own algorithmic trading operation with a little bit more than a notebook and an Internet connection.
