I never said algorithmic trading can't include fundamentals, quite the opposite, I just said that until Quantopian includes fundamental data, it's not all that interesting to me. P/E barely scratches the surface, I'm talking about all the data revealed in standard financial statements. If I were ever to trust my money to a security selection algorithm, it would have to analyze more than just price movements.
