Do Spikes Make it Harder to Find Profitable Patterns in Limit Order Books
In this talk, Dr Stephen Weston presents a novel approach to modelling spikes and explores how such a model sits naturally in an agent-based approach in order to gain greater insight into financial market behaviour.

Quantum Economics and Finance: The Quantum Option
In this video David Orrell applies the theory to the problem of pricing a financial option. Instead of using methods based on a random walk, we draw on the theory of quantum cognition to use a quantum walk, which shows very different behaviour.

The New World of Options Trading: Valuation, Risk and Robust Workflows
In this video, Misha Fomytskyi explains how to detect and fix typical problems arising in practice using real-world examples. We also discuss risk management, the limitations of Black-Scholes greeks and “sticky-strike” scenarios, and what to do instead.
