Level the Playing Field—Compete with the Pros Using Algorithmic Trading

Do you feel outmatched by professional traders with deep pockets, lightning-fast technology, and teams of PhDs? You’re not alone. But with the right approach, you can compete—and even thrive.

In Introduction to Algo Trading, Trading Championship winner Kevin J. Davey pulls back the curtain on how everyday retail traders can harness algorithmic trading to gain a real edge.

Inside, you’ll discover:

• A clear explanation of what algo trading really is—and what it isn’t

• How to decide if algo trading fits your personality, mindset, and goals

• The major advantages of systematic trading—including backtesting, diversification, and confidence

• Common misconceptions and pitfalls to avoid—so you don’t waste time or blow up your account

• Practical guidance on selecting trading platforms, learning the basics, and writing your first strategies

• A simple starter algorithm, plus tips for scaling up once you’re ready

Packed with plain-English explanations, real-world examples, and Kevin’s hard-won insights, this book gives you the roadmap to transition from discretionary guessing to disciplined, rules-based trading.

Whether you’re new to systematic trading or curious about taking your strategies to the next level, Introduction to Algo Trading is the perfect starting point to help you trade smarter, reduce mistakes, and compete with professionals on your terms.
