This is the second webinar of our #10YearsOfQuantInsti series. In this session, we’ll be interacting with Dr Thomas Starke on Deep Reinforcement Learning Trading (DRL). DRL has been very successful in beating the reigning world champion of the world's hardest board game GO. This talk explains the elements of DRL and how it can be applied to trading through "gamification".
