Automatic Trading Strategies: Basics of Pairs Trading Part 1 - Stock Pair Trading
#Pair trading - buying and selling a hedged stock pair at the same time, buying the weaker stock and selling the stronger stock at the same time (#short selling). This market-neutral trading approach is based on the principles of statistical#arbitrage. Dr. Daniel Sinnig explains how this trading style works in this introductory video, Part 1. Part 2 will follow on April 7, 2020, at 6 p.m. live at CapTrader (free registration below under Dates).
