Is there an active online group discussing the use of Python in finance?
Here are some resources for Python in finance I know of. Numpy, scipy, pandas, and matplotlib are useful packages discussed in the books "Python for Finance" by Hilpisch and "Python for Data Analysis" by McKinney. Quandl is a good packages for importing financial and economic data. Quantopian is a site that lets you backtest strategies coded in Python. IBpy is a package for trading at Interactive Brokers using Python. Quantstart has e-books and a blog about Python in finance. Robert Carver wrote a book "Systmatic Trading" that has Python code, and he has a blog "Investment Idiocy". Python is often discussed in the "programming and software" forum of wilmott.com .
