Forecasting model selection using intermediate classification: Application to MonarchFx corporation

作者:

Highlights:

• A new forecasting model selection based on intermediate classification is proposed.

• In the proposed algorithm, train and validation sets are used to train classifiers.

• Comparative out-of-sample performance is evaluated using trained classifiers.

• The results compared favorably to traditional out-of-sample performance models.

• The new selection method has been adopted and applied to data provided by MonarchFx.
