Book Financial Data Resampling for Machine Learning Based Trading

Download or read book Financial Data Resampling for Machine Learning Based Trading written by Tomé Almeida Borges and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-22 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a system that combines the expertise of four algorithms, namely Gradient Tree Boosting, Logistic Regression, Random Forest and Support Vector Classifier to trade with several cryptocurrencies. A new method for resampling financial data is presented as alternative to the classical time sampled data commonly used in financial market trading. The new resampling method uses a closing value threshold to resample the data creating a signal better suited for financial trading, thus achieving higher returns without increased risk. The performance of the algorithm with the new resampling method and the classical time sampled data are compared and the advantages of using the system developed in this work are highlighted.
