Product Description
The book focuses on forecasting foreign exchange rates via artificial neural networks. It creates and applies the highly useful computational techniques of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) to foreign-exchange-rate forecasting. The result is an up-to-date review of the most recent research developments in forecasting foreign exchange rates coupled with a highly useful methodological approach to predicting rate changes in foreign currency exchanges.

I don’t know why anyone with a great NN or other trading system would write about it, though that’s what I hoped would be in this book. The Good: Lots of discussion about architectures (especially hybrid systems), training methods, and literature references. The Bad (IMHO): I felt deprived by the scant experience and method details and the marginal editing. There is a fair amount of vector algebra for devotees. Overall, despite disappointments, it’s probably worth the price for a serious developer or academic researcher.
As a quality general textbook, I recommend ‘Neural Networks: A Comprehensive Foundation’ 3rd Ed. by Simon Haykin.
