About

Hi, I’m Adrian Rosebrock — a PhD in computer science, entrepreneur, and self-taught trader.

Background #

In 2014 I started PyImageSearch, a computer vision and deep learning education platform. I ran it for eight years, growing it into the largest platform of its kind, authoring 9 books, 2 courses, and 500+ tutorials on artificial intelligence. PyImageSearch was acquired in 2021.

After the acquisition, I became interested in algorithmic and quantitative trading. I spent several years learning the craft, building Python-driven trading systems, and actively managing my own portfolio.

What was PythonFinTech? #

PythonFinTech was where I documented that journey — real trades, real code, real results. The site covered Python tutorials for market analysis, monthly portfolio updates with full transparency, and trade breakdowns.

PythonFinTech is now shut down. The articles remain available as an archive.

What I’m doing now #

Everything I learned during my time running PythonFinTech led me to eventually launching my friends and family hedge fund, AltFund. I’m also building WheelMetrics, a platform that provides systematic weekly guidance on The Wheel Strategy for options traders.
