There is reliable evidence that simple rules used by traders have some predictive value over the future movement of foreign exchange prices. This paper will review some of this evidence and discuss the economic magnitude of this predictability. The profitability of these trading rules will then...

We propose a theory of asset pricing based on heterogeneous agents who continually adapt their expectations to the market that these expectations aggregatively create. And we explore the implications of this theory computationally using our Santa Fe artificial stock market. Asset markets, we...

A market of artificially intelligent traders is constructed to buy and sell a risky asset along with a risk free bond. Prices of the risky asset are determined endogenously from the interactions of the strategies which make trades and gather data. Each trader tries to learn about the world...

Recently, research has shown that simple technical trading rules have predictive power in foreign exchange markets. One feature that sets these markets apart from others is that certain large traders, central banks, may not be optimizing trading profits. This paper tests the performance of a few...

Recent research has shown the importance of time horizons in models of learning in finance. The dynamics of how agents adjust to believe that the world around them is stationary may be just as crucial in the convergence to a rational expectations equilibrium as getting parameters and model...

Computational models for financial markets with many interacting agents have recently appeared as a tool for examining learning and evolutionary issues in market dynamics. This paper surveys some of the early research in this area with emphasis on the many unsolved problems that researchers will...
