Forecasting Currency Exchange Trend on USD/CAD
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Currency exchange rate forecast has been, and remains a challenging tasks. With unpredictable natural disasters, political instabilities, government policies, and many other factors, it becomes difficult to correctly forecast the currency exchange rate. Many researchers in the past have done great works on forecasting the exchange rate of the United State Dollar (USD)/Canadian Dollar (CAD) using statistical approach. Even the Fundamental approach of relying on macroeconomic factors of the two countries, such as GDP ratio, Import/Export, government revenue, etc. were considered at various points. But (while forecasting the USD/CAD exchange rate), none of the previous methods considered deeply the underlying market trends which forms the basics of Technical analysis. We have included various machine learning models and time sensitive indicators that directly aligns with the USD/CAD exchange rate movement so as to improve on this issue. These features will create a new dimension for researchers to predict and forecast the USD/CAD exchange rate. We have considered various types of models for predicting and forecasting the USD/CAD exchange rate, and realized that among all our models, Time Series models provides the best accuracy. While building our model, I relied of daily forex statistical data maintained by Tick Data Suite (TDS) and Investing.Com. All our macroeconomics data (Consumer Price Indices (CPI), Interest Rates, Imports, Exports, and Un Employment Rates) were automatically downloaded from the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED)’s portal via an API. Due to huge data size available to me, I used 90% of my data for training my models, and the remaining 10% for my testing. At the end, we were able to come up with good results from our models, of which Linear Regression, Bayesian Ridge Regression, and Random Forest Regressor (RFR) outperformed others based on accuracy.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
