🧠 One-sentence explanation: Quantitative trading is the process of using code and mathematical models to replace human intuition and emotion in investment decision-making. It pursues rigorous and systematic trading, like conducting a scientific experiment.

• Strategy (the brain): The trading rules. For example, "If the asset price rises for three consecutive days, buy; if it falls below the 5-day moving average, sell."
• Data (the fuel): Historical prices, financial reports, and other information that drive the strategy.
• Technology (the engine): The tools that make it all happen, primarily programming languages (Python is the most popular) and trading systems. Basic Process
