چکیده

This paper describes how cooperative coevolution can be used for GP of technical trading rules. A number of different methods of choosing collaborators for fitness evaluation are investigated. Several of the methods outperformed, at a statistically significant level, a buy-and-hold strategy for the S&P500 on the testing period from 1990-2002, even taking into account transaction costs.

Several methodology changes from previous work are discussed and tested. These include a complexity-penalizing factor, a fitness function that considers consistency of performance, and coevolution of a separate buy ...

Linguistic modeling with weighted double-consequent fuzzy rules based on cooperative coevolution

This paper presents an evolutionary learning process for linguistic modeling with weighted double-consequent fuzzy rules. These kinds of fuzzy rules are used to improve the linguistic modeling, with the aim of introducing a trade-off between interpretability and precision. The use of weighted double-consequent fuzzy rules makes more complex the modeling and learning process, increasing the solu...

Discovering Financial Technical Trading Rules Using Genetic Programming with Lambda Abstraction

Keywords: We applied genetic programming with a lambda abstraction module mechanism to learn technical trading rules based on S&P 500 index from 1982 to 2002. The results show strong evidence of excess returns over buy-and-hold after transaction cost. The discovered trading rules can be interpreted easily; each rule uses a combination of one to four widely used technical indicators to make trad...
