This paper addresses the problem of forecasting daily stock trends. The key consideration is to predict whether a given will close on uptrend tomorrow with reference today’s closing price. We propose model that comprises features selection model, based Genetic Algorithm (GA), and Random Forest (RF) classifier. In our study, we consider four international indices follow concept distributed lag a...
