The course is eight weeks long and gives you ample time to practice what you learn, watch and re-watch the content as well as ask questions and get support from our coaches.
This course does not cover the basics of Python.
However, we provide full code lessons and support you during the Python software installation process.
We recommend knowledge of Python, Pandas, and Conda Environments
We use Interactive Brokers and the Interactive Brokers API.
The Omega “Hedge Fund in a Box” is set up for Interactive Brokers only at this time.
We will guide you on how to open up an account with Interactive Brokers.
We apologize, but there’s a ton of setup required to support other brokers, and it’s not feasible at this time.
Solution: If you are open to starting a brokerage account with Interactive Brokers, we will teach you everything you need to know on how to trade with it and get up to speed fast.
