It is my pleasure to welcome Ilya Kipnis for a multi-part series of webinars on R. The first in the series will be on Wednesday, September 3rd @ 4:30 PM Eastern.
The topic for the first webinar will be a simple introduction to using R for traders. It will lay the groundwork for how to get started, and whet your appetite for the more advanced topics which will be covered in the rest of the series.
There will be an extensive Q&A session, so be sure to attend live so your questions can be answered.
Ilya describes himself as an statistician and aspiring quant trader, and has been working in this field for 4 years. He is looking to make new contacts in the industry and collaborate on projects.
You can find his blog here, and some of his github repos and R libraries as well:

It is my intention to show futures.io (formerly BMT)'s members that there are other options to consider in the world of trading, and to expand your horizons past the typical retail platforms. I believe you will find new inspiration and ideas that can help your success.
