AlgoTrader Announces Integration With Pair Trading Lab

AlgoTrader integrates Pair Trading Lab.

Zurich – We are pleased to announce that we have developed an interface to pairtradinglab.com. Even better, the interface is available to AlgoTrader clients for free.

What Is Pairs Trading?

Pairs trading is a well-known market neutral trading strategy, that gives traders the ability to profit from practically any market conditions. Whether conditions reflect an uptrend, downtrend, or sideways movement, traders can take advantage of the current market using pairs trading. This type of strategy is typically categorized as a statistical arbitrage trading strategy.

The strategy works by monitoring the performance of two historically correlated securities. When the correlation between those two securities demonstrate a temporary weakness, a pairs trade could be conducted by shorting the outperforming stock and going long on the underperforming stock. Basically, you are betting that the spread between the two will converge eventually.

Why We Chose to Build an Interface with Pair Trading Lab
