ABSTRACT
This thesis presents the development of an
optimized intelligent machine learning approach in Forex trading using two
moving average indicators. This work introduced a new intelligent model for
automated execution of trades in the Forex market, reducing potential losses
due to factors such as human errors and sentiments in trading Forex. In
developing this trading model, Momentum strategy was used since it takes
advantage of market swings, along with Genetic Algorithm being a type of supervised
Machine Learning used in training the past historical data based on selected
trading parameters in a Meta Trader 4 (MT4) platform. The Exponential Simple
Moving Average (ESMA) which is the new Expert Advisor was developed using the
MQL4 language which is based on C++for programming specific trading strategies
and easily facilitates automated trading. The result is an optimized
intelligent trading system that implements the intersection of the two moving
averages at various periods, to execute trades autonomously with a profit pass
rate of 75% visible from the Optimization chart ofthe MetaTrader 4 (MT4)
platform.
