Limited content (just over an hour in total) and no support when questions asked.

Important steps were left out of the instruction.
1. Do you want us to follow along in the notebook or just watch you. In the latter case, you will be going over in detail the same information. You didn't say.
2. Installing quandl does not give us the Jupyter Notebook apparently. At least as of Nov 2020. I had to look up "installing jupyterlab" to give me this capability.

Very important oversights.

Great to have an overview on how data is used in python. Very interesting info on how I can combine my Python skills with my Forex trading experience. I will revisit these lessons at a later date to develop my own Algos for trading signals.
