About the Tutorial
1: Building a Random Forest regression model for Forex trading using price indicators and a sentiment indicator
This tutorial goes into building a machine learning model that could predict the next day’s currency close price based on previous days’ OHLC data, EMA, RSI, OBV indicators, and a Twitter sentiment indicator. It is based on a Random forests Regressor because it combines the benefits of trees’ predictive power and avoidance of overfitting. Also, the introduction of a sentiment indicator balances the limitations of technical analysis and draws information from the domain of behavioral economics.

2: Systematic G10 FX index
This tutorial is about the construction of an FX Index that can be used as a benchmark to proxy the G10 FX market performance in a systematic manner. To accomplish it, we will be using both technical and macroeconomic factors such as momentum, interest rates and purchasing power.
