Can machine learning really predict the stock market? In this video, we explore how cutting-edge algorithms are being used to forecast weekly stock market trends. From technical indicators to scaling laws and directional changes, discover the innovative methods researchers are using to find patterns in market data.

We’ll also dive into fascinating insights like:

- How machine learning models like Support Vector Machines (SVMs) and Multilayer Perceptrons (MLPs) perform in predicting stock indices and individual stocks.

- Why focusing on weekly trends might be more effective and accessible than daily predictions.

- The surprising benchmarks against random traders—and how these models stack up.

Whether you’re curious about AI in finance, want to understand market inefficiencies, or are looking to start your own journey into financial machine learning, this video is packed with insights you don’t want to miss.
