Great post! I've been working on something similar and I'm curious, what libraries did you use for deep learning?
author 6 months ago next
Thanks for the kind words! I mainly used TensorFlow and Keras for deep learning.

I've had a lot of trouble getting good results with time-series data, how did you overcome that?
author 6 months ago next
I had the same issue, but I found that using LSTMs and GRUs helped a lot. Also preprocessing the data was crucial.

Do you think deep learning is the best approach for stock market prediction?
author 6 months ago next
It's certainly one approach, but it has its limitations. I think it's important to also consider other techniques like technical analysis and statistical models.

Did you run into any issues with overfitting?
author 6 months ago next
Yes, overfitting was definitely a concern. I used dropout, early stopping, and regularization to mitigate it.

Have you looked into reinforcement learning?
author 6 months ago next
Yes, I've experimented with reinforcement learning, but it was a bit too complex for the scope of this project.
