Predicting risk/reward ratio in financial markets for asset management using machine learning

원문 초록

Financial market forecasting remains a formidable challenge despite the surge in computational capabilities and machine learning advancements. While numerous studies have underscored the precision of computer-generated market predictions, many of these forecasts fail to yield profitable trading outcomes. This discrepancy often arises from the unpredictable nature of profit and loss ratios in the event of successful and unsuccessful predictions. In this study, we introduce a novel algorithm specifically designed for forecasting the profit and loss outcomes of trading activities. This is further augmented by an innovative approach for integrating these forecasts with previous predictions of market trends. This approach is designed for algorithmic trading, enabling traders to assess the profitability of each trade and calibrate the optimal trade size. Our findings indicate that this method significantly improves the performance of traditional trading strategies as well as algorithmic trading systems, offering a promising avenue for enhancing trading decisions.
