Stock Elo Trading Algorithm

Primary LanguagePython

Stock Elo Trading Algorithm

This is going to be an attempt to create a machine learning algorithm to predict whether or not a stock is worth buying based on a "elo score". When looking to buy a stock on may use indicators the help such as MacD, RSI, Bollinger Bands etc. I believe we are subconsciously creating an algorithm to make that split buy/sell decision. The result of the algorithm is what I call the Elo score and I am trying to discover how that score is calculated.

Some useful tools:

Their are thousands of wonderful tools in the world for projects like these! I am using which are not required I just found them useful:

  1. Pycharm: The editor of choice for this project
  2. cmder: This is a command line for windows that has a lovely UI

Libraries/Tools

  1. I will be using most everything from SciPy
  2. Tensorflow

Notes

This is my first machine learning project and first decent sized python project so there might be some situations where best practices are not followed but I am learning and will adopt best practices as I learn them.
