The motivation of this paper is to introduce a short term adaptive model (Partial Swarm Optimizer combined with linear and nonlinear models when applied to the task of forecasting and trading the daily closing returns of the FTSE100 exchange traded funds (ETFs). This is done by benchmarking its...

The paper proposes an elementary agent-based asset pricing model that, invoking the two trader types of fundamentalists and chartists, comprises four features: (i) price determination by excess demand; (ii) a herding mechanism that gives rise to a macroscopic adjustment equation for the market...

Stock market has been a complex system which has been difficult to predict for humans, thereby, making the trading decisions difficult to take. It will be useful for traders if there is a model agent which can learn the stock market trends and suggest trading decisions which in turn maximizes...

We propose a parsimonious agent-based model of a financial market at the intra-day time scale that is able to jointly reproduce many of the empirically validated stylised facts. These include properties related to returns (leptokurtosis, absence of linear autocorrelation, volatility clustering),...

Das vorliegende Papier dokumentiert die zugrundeliegenden Konzepte und Methoden des Räumlichen Agenten-basierten Wettbewerbsmodells (Spatial Agent-based Competition Model) SpAbCoM. Anwendungsbeispiele dieses Simulationsmodells untersuchen die Entscheidung bezüglich der räumlichen...

In order to verify the effects of machine learning in a market structure, an evolutionary model containing firms that use a genetic algorithm to decide their investment in innovative R&D was developed. These firms share the market, with two other types of firms, those with a fixed rate of...
