An automated cryptocurrency trading system based on the detection of unusual price movements with a Time-Series Clustering-Based approach

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose an end-to-end automated cryptocurrency trading system.

• We detect and remove the periods with unusual price movements.

• We use various classification algorithms for the prediction of price direction.

• The outlier detection step significantly increases return on investment.

• During the highly volatile periods the trading system becomes more profitable.
