As a quantitative portfolio manager, Stephane Caraguel needs a faster way to develop backtesting trading strategies without relying on the inconsistent toolboxes created by users of open source languages like R. The built-in functions within Wolfram technologies allow Caraguel to create usable code much more quickly. "During my career I developed backtesting platforms in several languages. On average it took me one to two months to come up with something that was usable. I did the same thing recently with Woflram technologies, and it took me only two weeks to do it," says Caraguel.
