Summary

We learned how to create a trading system in this chapter. The trading system we created includes all of the necessary components for you to design a trading system and start trading.

It takes years to learn how to construct a trading system. Because of the difference between the asset classes, it is likely that you will become an expert in one asset class rather than another. We created the bare minimum of features that a trading system should have. We must learn how to link this component to a trading system in order for it to be completely functioning.

In the following chapters, we will explain in detail how trading systems should be implemented and especially related to the operating system and the hardware. In the next chapter, we have more pieces of knowledge to learn about the trading exchange.

We did, then collated those deliberations into absurd research articles with fake figures and methodologies inspired by even more fictionally absurd studies.
