Many retail traders and retail quants are looking to leverage the power of data to find and profit from predictable behavior in the markets. They are faced with the ever-increasing challenge: where to find data affordably and without having to learn to program. Due to popular requests, this course has been put together to show you exactly how to use the Crypto Wizards DataBuilder tool to do this quickly without hassle.

Data is powerful. In this course, you will learn how to extract any financial data you like for both intraday and daily data and add complex information to your dataset that you simply just cannot find anywhere else. This includes adding in co-integration (see statistical arbitrage course), technical indicators, and more.

This course has been designed for registered members of the software platform, Crypto Wizards. If you are not a registered member, you will likely not get much out of this course. However, you will learn about general principles around financial time series data and equally gain some knowledge on how how to capitalize on this.

We will cover:

• How to add technical indicators
• How to add relationship metrics such as correlation and co-integration
• How to convert time series to dollar bars and why
• How to append data as rows instead of columns to support complex machine learning

This course is a primer and precursor to the follow-up course: Data Engineer. To perform feature engineering on your data, you must first know how to extract and structure basic data.
