  • Abstract
    We examine the performance of genetic algorithms as a method for deciding on a strategy to invest in different financial instruments. We discuss the literature, pointing out the different methods for making investment decisions. We then describe genetic algorithms, linking them to the procedure used in this study. We then report on the results obtained in our experiments
