The application of artificial neural networks to exchange rate forecasting : the role of market microstructure variables / by Nikola Gradojevic and Jing Yang.FB3-2/100-23E-PDF

Artificial neural networks (ANN) are employed for high-frequency Canada/U.S. dollar exchange rate forecasting.--Abstract This paper examines whether introducing a market microstructure variable (that is, order flow) into a set of daily observations of macroeconomic variables (interest rate, crude oil price) together with an ANN technique can explain Canada/U.S. dollar exchange rate movement better than linear and random walk models. Two statistics are used to compare models: root-mean squared error (RMSE) and the percentage of correctly predicted exchange rate changes (PERC).--Introduction
