Becoming an Algorithmic Trader

Hello Monkeys,

I am currently a finance student at a non-target school. Good grades, and strong mathematical skills that have always carried my success through college. I am trying to learn more about algorithmic trading. I am aware that there needs to be a high skill set, such as coding. I can easily just search online and find lessons on how to code for beginners. However I was wondering if there is a book or online course that can walk me across the beginnings of coding and algo trading together. Sort of a bundle for someone with no experience. Any resources that you might have found helpful would be much appreciated. Thanks !
