The forex market is a dynamic marketplace, constantly shifting and evolving. It is not one currency versus the world but all currencies affecting all other currencies to a greater or lesser degree. To attempt to examine the multiple effects of five or ten related markets such as forex simultaneously on a target market, reviewing five or ten years of data to find recurring, predictive patterns, methods such as linear correlation analysis and subjective chart analysis quickly reveal their limitations and inadequacies as trend and price-forecasting tools. Single-market analysis tools cannot ferret out forex market interrela- tionships. If traders are serious about forex trading, they need to make the commitment to get the right tools from the beginning, or they are likely to struggle to keep their accounts intact. When it come to invest- ing in analytical tools, another familiar saying: “Penny wise and pound foolish” is apropos. Nothing, of course, is 100% correct, no matter what tools are used. Even the best tool can only provide mathematical probabilities, not certain- ties, but the tools do not need to be perfect to provide a trading edge. If analytical tools can find and identify the recurring patterns within individual forex markets and between related global markets, that is 61 ForeX trading using interMarket anaLysis all that is necessary to have a leg up on other traders. This insight into price activity over the next few days can provide added confidence and discipline to adhere to trading strategies and enable traders to pull the trigger at the right time without self-doubt or hesitation. 6 63 When all of the many shifting and changing intermarket relationships in the forex markets discussed in Chapter 5 are considered, traders might wonder how anyone could possibly pick out patterns and rela- tionships from such a mass of data. The approach taken here to fore- cast moving averages is based on the use of neural networks applied to price, volume, and open interest data on each target market and various related markets. Unlike the subjective approach of chart analysis, neural networks provide an objective way to identify and analyze the complex rela- tionships that exist in forex and related markets. They reveal hidden patterns and correlations in these markets that cannot be spotted on a chart or through the use of traditional single-market indicators that tend to lag the markets. A neural network is not a human brain, but it takes on some brain-like functions as it studies data, “learns” relationships within and between markets, recognizes patterns in past data, and uses this information to make forecasts about the target market. The neural net is essentially a modeling tool that accepts a variety of data and processes information in a manner similar to the brain (Figure 6.1). Download 1.29 Mb. Do'stlaringiz bilan baham: |
