Abstract: | Having the ability to predict the price of a particular stock share is undoubtedly a major challenge, because of the complexity and implied volatility of the financial markets. This is a topic of great interest to researchers and market players, as the effectiveness of the forecast might translate into huge monetary gains. This work aims to demonstrate the use of neural networks for stock price forecasting. Two financial titles are considered: Microsoft and Apple. The initial choice of the predictor variables comprises the most used and referenced in the scientific papers published on this subject. This work demonstrates the importance of a careful selection of some of those variables for a good neural network performance. |
