Deep reinforcement learning based trading agents: Risk curiosity driven learning for financial rules-based policy

作者:

Highlights:

• A novel rule-based policy approach is proposed to train automated trading agents.

• A continuous virtual environment was created to boost the training process.

• The risk curiosity-driven learning has progressively improved actions quality.

• The appropriateness and efficiency of self-trained rules are provided.

• The trained agent exhibits transfer learning.
