Unlock the Power of Machine Learning to Gain a Competitive Edge in Options Markets

In today's hyper-competitive financial landscape, traditional options trading strategies are no longer enough. Machine Learning for Options Trading bridges the gap between theoretical finance and real-world execution by giving you a practical, end-to-end framework to build predictive models, generate trading signals, and optimize execution using Python.

This book is your tactical playbook for deploying supervised and unsupervised learning methods to uncover actionable insights buried in options data. From volatility surfaces and skew metrics to time-decay and delta shifts, you’ll learn how to engineer features that matter, and turn those features into alpha-generating signals.


What You’ll Learn
  • Feature Engineering for Derivatives: Moneyness, IV rank, skew, term structure, gamma exposure, and more

  • Signal Generation with ML Models: Random forests, gradient boosting, and ensemble techniques

  • Time Series Forecasting for Options: LSTM and sequence modeling for implied volatility and delta reversion

  • Risk-Aware Portfolio Construction: Designing delta/vega/gamma-neutral baskets

  • Backtesting & Execution: Walk-forward validation, slippage modeling, and trade simulation


Tools and Frameworks Covered
  • Python (Pandas, NumPy, Scikit-learn, XGBoost, TensorFlow, Keras)

  • OptionMetrics-style datasets and real-time feeds

  • Custom backtesting engines for options-specific performance


Who This Book Is For
  • Quantitative traders seeking a machine learning edge

  • Data scientists entering derivatives markets

  • Options professionals upgrading their tech stack

  • Python developers moving into finance

Whether you're a seasoned quant or a self-taught trader, this book will help you transition from back-of-the-envelope models to machine-learned alpha with statistical rigor and automation.

Data is the new edge. Machine learning is how you extract it.
Build smarter signals. Trade with conviction. Outperform the crowd.
