    Creating an algo trading strategy requires a solid understanding of programming language to express your logic – like Python. But that comes with the burden of mastering the syntax, rules and libraries of that language if you are not already familiar! For traders without any programming background, this can be a serious challenge!

    Many applications try to solve this by providing a graphical interface. But real-life trading algorithms are complex, and requires much more flexibility than a step by step selections of choices and parameters. This problem is completely solved Visual programming with Blueshift®.

    In this session, we are going to discuss the brief overview of algotrading, need for algo trading, complete overview of the visual programming feature of Blueshift®. In addition to this, we will also explore a trend trading strategy, analyse its performance and implement risk management using visual programming.

    All without a single line of coding!

    Good data management is critical for any technological solution success, and that is no different for LowCode solutions. Export good data into your data lake or analytics solution, migrate data from production into lower environments (for better DevOps, to improve quality, reduce errors and minimize wasted time), import legacy data into Low-Code or anonymize data to comply with data protection are some of the examples we will cover in this workshop. Demonstrations and details will be presented focusing on the #1 low-code platform OutSystems and are common to all major low-code vendors.
