Improving Stock Market Predictions: An Equity Forecasting Scanner Using Long Short-Term Memory Method with Dynamic Indicators for Malaysia Stock Market

Stock market predictions are a challenging problem due to the dynamic and complex nature of financial data. This study proposes an approach that integrates the domain knowledge of investors with a long-short-term memory (LSTM) algorithm for predicting stock prices. The proposed approach involves collecting data from investors in the form of technical indicators and using them as input for the LSTM model. The model is then trained and tested using a dataset of 100 stocks. The accuracy of the model is evaluated using various metrics, including the average prediction accuracy, average cumulative return, Sharpe ratio, and maximum drawdown. The results are compared to the performance of other strategies, including the random selection of technical indicators. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed model outperforms the other strategies in terms of accuracy and performance in a 100-stock investment simulation, highlighting the potential of integrating investor domain knowledge with machine learning algorithms for stock price prediction.
