The design of financial trading systems (FTSs) is a subject of high interest both for the academic environment and for the professional one due to the promises by machine learning methodologies. In this paper we consider the Reinforcement Learning-based policy evaluation approach known as...

In this work we analyze and implement different Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms in financial trading system applications. RL-based algorithms applied to financial systems aim to find an optimal policy, that is an optimal mapping between the variables describing the state of the system and...
