Computational Forecasting of Two Exchange Rates

نویسنده

  • Mak Kaboudan
چکیده

In this paper, genetic programming and artificial neural networks are employed to forecast two different exchange rates, US dollar/Japanese Yen and US dollar/Taiwan dollar. Extended forecasts (that go beyond one-step-ahead) obtained using the computational techniques were compared with naïve random walk predictions of the two exchange rates. Sixteen-step-ahead forecasts obtained using genetic programming outperformed the oneand sixteen-stepahead random walk US dollar/Taiwan dollar exchange rate predictions. Further, sixteen-step-ahead forecasts of the wavelet-transformed US dollar/Japanese Yen exchange rate also using genetic programming outperformed the sixteen-step-ahead random walk predictions of the exchange rate.

A hybrid computational intelligence model for foreign exchange rate forecasting

Computational intelligence approaches have gradually established themselves as a popular tool for forecasting the complicated financial markets. Forecasting accuracy is one of the most important features of forecasting models; hence, never has research directed at improving upon the effectiveness of time series models stopped. Nowadays, despite the numerous time series forecasting models propos...

The Comparison among ARIMA and hybrid ARIMA-GARCH Models in Forecasting the Exchange Rate of Iran

This paper attempts to compare the forecasting performance of the ARIMA model and hybrid ARMA-GARCH Models by using daily data of the Iran’s exchange rate against the U.S. Dollar (IRR/USD) for the period of 20 March 2014 to 20 June 2015. The period of 20 March 2014 to 19 April 2015 was used to build the model while remaining data were used to do out of sample forecasting and check the forecasti...

Comparisons of the Different Frequencies of Input Data for Neural Networks in Foreign Exchange Rates Forecasting

We compare the predication performance of neural networks with the different frequencies of input data, namely daily data, weekly data, monthly data. In the 1 day and 1 week ahead prediction of foreign exchange rates forecasting, the neural networks with the weekly input data performs better than the random walk models. In the 1 month ahead prediction of foreign exchange rates forecasting, only...
