Machine Learning and Reinforcement Learning in Finance

FYI if you havent seen https://www.coursera.org/specializations/machine-learning-reinforcement-finance

I don't know the direct answer to your question, but NYU has a course on ML + RL applied to finance on Coursera: https://www.coursera.org/specializations/machine-learning-reinforcement-finance (if you don't want to pay you can audit the courses)

No clue what's in the course but might be worth your time to figure out if it's relevant

Which courses in this specialization are good?

sure? i am not in the field of trading myself but i've seen plenty of articles on the subject

also, there's an entire specialization on RL in finance on Coursera - https://www.coursera.org/specializations/machine-learning-reinforcement-finance

Quant shops seems to be the best path/least distance from old to new.

The only angle I can think is if you have mad skillz & passion for a domain and have done something interesting, like build an autonomous lawnmower or Alexa/IoT app for yr fridge to remind you to stock up. Slightly silly examples, but only a hook, such as publication in prestigious journal, will help you "beat" a PhD in the CV battle.

Is there not something right where you are that interests you, i.e. https://www.gsam.com/content/gsam/global/en/market-insights/gsam-insights/quantinomics.html
