Trading support method based on computational intelligence for speculators in the options market

摘要

The financial world has changed dramatically in recent decades. Electronic data processing, globalisation, and deregulation have changed markets, and the biggest part of these major changes includes derivatives. As financial markets become more interconnected and global, volatility in these markets may increase dramatically in the future. It is natural that the derivatives market is gaining attention and popularity among market participants as an alternative to traditional investment and speculative instruments. The growing number of technologydriven applications and innovations in the financial sector encourages the inclusion of products relating to automated trading and robotic advice in financial decision-making. The aim of this paper is to investigate different option-trading strategies and to evaluate the effect of computational intelligence on trading success in the derivatives markets. The recurrent neural network (RNN) Keras was adopted for forecasting option prices, and the results were compared with the forecasting using the evolution of recurrent systems with optimal linear output algorithms (EVOLINO) for RNNs. This forecasting
