Forex data gathering and analysis acceleration

A prototype Forex currency trading system has demonstrated a proof of concept on a static data set. The current project proposes to implement the trading system for real-time applications.

Foreign currency trading (Forex) is a high risk activity where low stakes multiply out to large gains and large losses.The trading activity is time dependent and very small time differences can result in gains or losses. By analyzing trading activity CTSForex aims to provide a strategy thatgives the trader an advantage over a sequence of trades.The strategy depends on an algorithm that requires data gathering and analysis in close to real time. The internship proposed therefore includes fast data gathering from the web, the rapid execution ofpredictive analysis of the data and the automatic execution of Forex trades on the basis of the CTSForex algorithmic analysis.
