Abstract: “Recently, algorithmic trading, which is an automatic trade by means of a computer and a trading rule, has become popular. To use the algorithmic trading effectively, its trading rule is quite important because the trading rule is an algorithm to determine the timing of using market parameters. Investors are eager to find a good trading rule, which can be a good indicator to trade stocks, from among enormous numbers of rules. However, the existing trading-rules evaluation systems for virtual dealing cannot be used for full search of trading rules. The causes of the problem are the compatibility of virtual dealing software and the computing resource available for trading-rules evaluation. In this research, we have designed and developed an integrated platform for trading rules search to cope with these two issues.”
