Good for beginner but would recommend to have a bit knowledge about trading as it will be easy to grasp, Also WEEK 3 will be very challenging as its just MATH

On the three it got i little bit complicated because it was a lack of information about a spetific topic (The CAPM) But the rest was really great. Thanks
