This book discusses how this statistical trading edge can be built in your own designed do-it-yourself algorithmic technical trading model. What makes and marks an exceptional trader from an average trader is a proven statistical trading edge of producing positive net return in the long run. An exceptional trader is not born with a natural gaming talent to time purchases and sales. Rather he or she is someone who is an extremely keen observer of market price patterns. The exceptional trader does his or her homework by researching the markets and backtesting technical algorithm trading systems. Anyone can be an exceptional trader if he or she dedicates and commits the time to study and practice technical analysis in the science of trading. Therefore, Algorithm Trading 101 begins with market data and technical analysis which are important components of market analysis because it is the cornerstone to timing each and every trade.

It is about how a beginner can distinguish herself or himself from the crowd and make exceptional profits using technical analysis, its indicators and algorithm models. Making profit has nothing to do with random luck. Luck can not be disguised and perceived as skill. Nothing is random. Everything is about patterns repeating themselves, in many different ways and in many different forms. This book is about the patterns in commodities and futures markets. This book is about how anyone can identify the patterns or trends and trade on them as much as possible with net positive return after accounting for transaction costs and precious time spent. It is about achieving the best possible returns for your capital, time and money. This book is about you, being at the right market, at the right time, timing your purchase or your sale in the equity, commodities, futures, currencies, cryptocurrencies, any market that trends directionally. Your chances of being right and riding on the right decision, timing and action all add up to net profitability over the years, after paying yourself for the time, effort and hard work.
