1. Introduction

Welcome to the N2NQuant AI Quantitative Investment Platform. This article will provide a brief introduction to help you quickly understand N2nQuant and the value that AI can bring to investors. We hope it can help you establish a preliminary understanding of the N2NQuant AI Quantitative Platform.

Firstly, we need to popularize two concepts: artificial intelligence and quantitative investment. What exactly are artificial intelligence and quantitative investment? You can quickly browse the following two articles to gain a preliminary understanding of these two concepts.

Simply put, N2NQuant hopes to help every investor have the ability to apply artificial intelligence technology for investment and trading, enabling machines to replace human brains for data mining and analysis, identifying potential patterns that affect stock price changes in massive financial data, and making rational and scientific investments. So, what value can artificial intelligence bring to investment, and how does N2NQuant help everyone achieve this value on the platform?

1.1 How artificial intelligence brings value to investments?

For an excellent investor, the key to obtaining positive returns lies in their rich investment experience accumulated over the years. By reusing this experience, they can make effective decisions for new future situations, and these "experiences" can be understood as "data" for machines;

Human energy is limited, and in this era of big data, machines can access much more stored data than humans. This means that machines have much richer "experience" than humans. The experience that ordinary investors need five or even ten years to accumulate only takes a few minutes for machines. In a short period of time, machines can use relevant algorithms to find potential patterns from historical massive data, generate predictive models, and guide investors in investment;

On the other hand, emotions are a major enemy of investment, and machines can largely eliminate emotional interference and objectively and rationally analyze data.

Past experience tells us that in the era of big data, artificial intelligence can do better than humans. It can help ordinary investors catch up with experienced investors in a short period of time

1.2 How N2NQuant achieves this value?

N2NQuant is a one-stop AI platform and community for quantitative strategy development, providing a visual AI development IDE (AIStudio) that allows investors to use quantitative and AI more easily and quickly.

N2nQuant is committed to empowering every quantitative investor with the capabilities of artificial intelligence. The platform has massive data from multiple markets including the US stock market, Hong Kong stock market, Singapore, Vietnam, Malaysia, and fully supports mainstream AI frameworks.

The platform provides three modes for strategy development: code mode, generator mode, and visualization mode, allowing users of different professional levels to develop strategies on the platform.

Visual strategy development is a mature development model in the industry, adopted by companies such as Microsoft and Google. Users only need to drag and drop modules without programming to develop AI driven quantitative investment strategies, allowing financial engineers, ordinary traders, and even business personnel to use AI technology without barriers to improve investment efficiency and effectiveness, without the need to learn a lot of difficult programming and algorithm knowledge.
