Turing Finance August 20, 2016. Random walks down Wall Street, Stochastic Processes in Python. On April 7, 2015. And asked them to build an interactive educational web application for learning about stochastic processes. Update - I got quite a few questions regarding the usage of this code, as per some of the suggestions from readers I have created an IPython Notebook. Hope that helps 🙂. A random event is any event which has a chance of happening. Probability is the measure of that chance. Rando...Are f...

Simulated Annealing for Portfolio Optimization
http://www.turingfinance.com/simulated-annealing-for-portfolio-optimization
Turing Finance August 31, 2016. Simulated Annealing for Portfolio Optimization. This article applies the Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm. Basic Simulated Annealing Algorithm. This real-world concept may, at first, seem quite difficult to translate into an optimization algorithm, however, with some 'algorithmic license' the resulting algorithm is actually quite simple. The simulated annealing algorithm for portfolio optimization essentially only consists of eleven steps, only two of which are reall...
