A Review Of My GOLD Trade

When I started formulating my simplified trading strategy, I tested it out on GOLD.  GOLD made a new all time high on high volume on 5/20, I entered on 5/21.  Needless to say, I caught a small portion of the trend before being stopped out.  The system worked nicely.

Here's the entry chart (the before):

 

And here's the exit chart (the after):

    Thanks Tom for all the Information, Data and Tutorials that you have posted over the last few years on this site. I've discovered a lot about AI Financial Prediction and Neural Networks from your good work
    .
    I'm posting here as I have recently added a .xls for Metals Futures Predictions to my new site with excellent data sources. This might be useful to some of your readers and also helped me to predict a large chunk of the above trend in Rapid Miner :)

    I will be adding other models and lots more to the site !
    I'm also building a Neural Network XML API for the BullionVault :)

    Keep up the good work and Happy Trading !

    I'm glad I could be of help.  I see that your using NeuroXL.  How's that working out for you?

    NeuroXL Predictor is perhaps not as flexible or as accurate as Rapid Miner and of course their is a small cost involved, but the learning curve is certainly not as steep.
    However, I'm mainly and successfully using it to quickly predict AM and PM next day trends from fixings, with just over 80% accuracy. It is of course necessary to add other 'stocks' data to the spread sheet / model.
     
    Perhaps you might be interested in over seeing our new Neural Network 'Robot' project for use with the BullionVault ?

    It would be fantastic to have an adviser of your experience 'on board' in whatever capacity you might have some spare time for.
    It will be Java based, for usage as a FireFox add-on. We intend to keep the server load very light by using a Neural Network, thus making fewer and more profitable transactions, where possible.
    I will send you more information via > contact ? Best Regards.

    BTW I will get around to adding a link to this blog on my site. I'm still compiling the 'Link' Section ATM. It will mostly comprise of Futures Predictions for Gold, Neural Networks and AI Financial Prediction.
    Thanks. :)
