Abstract

Quantitative trading is an emerging financial investment strategy. In this paper, based on the historical data prediction-guided trading strategy problem, small-sample prediction and machine learning are used to build a prediction trading model. To solve the problem of insufficient training samples in the early stage, we build a gray prediction model for small sample forecasting, and train the neural algorithm and use it for later predictions. In the gray prediction model, the optimal prediction parameters are obtained by tuning the parameters for the differential equation. The whale algorithm was introduced to optimize the BP neural network to obtain a threshold closer to the optimal solution, which accelerated the degree of threshold optimal approximation by reducing the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) by 26%.
