StockPredictions
Use classic tricks, neural networks, deep learning, genetic programming and other methods to predict stock and market movements.
Both successful and unsuccessful experiments will be posted. This section is things that are currently being explored. Completed projects will be wrapped up and moved to another repository to keep things simple.
The main goal of this project is to learn more about time series analysis and prediction. The stock market just happens to have lots of complicated time series and available data
The first evolving neural net does the best job of predicting daily changes. It's impressive. That'll be my first go to tool
The NASDAQ Evolved Network is a good simple example that should be easy to apply to any index
