If you haven’t investigated RStudio, the positive reviews continue to come pouring in.  I hear kudos for auto-completion, but, still leaves much to be desired on version control, source tidying, plotting, and more.

Check out the 3rd annual Applied Finance with R conference here.  John Bollinger will be speaking at this event.  I had the opportunity to hear him last live in Seattle a couple years back.  That doesn’t perk my interest nearly as much as the tutorials:

  • Jeff Ryan’s talk on Algorithmic Trading with R,
  • Guy Yollin and Scott Payseur on High Frequency Data Analysis with R
  • Eric Zovit on Financial Risk Models with R: Factor Models for Asset Returns and Interest Rate Models.

I would be there if I wasn’t scheduled for vacation

Thanks to Matt at lab49, I’ve found my way to Tabb.  I do recommend the article he referred to on Stat Arb.

There continues to be a general dearth of books on Azure.  At least someone has found a couple here.
