The idea is simple - look at several candlesticks, recognize pattern, and predict the next candlestick. However, it is necessary to remember many patterns and look through many charts. Fortunately, Neural Network (NN) can make this task easier by automating the recognition of candlestick patterns and prediction (read more - how to convert a candlestick shape in numerical values). To predict the further price move if formalization task is completed, there is a need to prepare the data for training NN.For simplicity, consider one major characteristic of each candlestick. In case of using six candlesticks to predict the performance within the next seventh one (actually the value of Real Body can be considered as an equivalent of performance), the data row for training neural network would be presented by the following:
In reality we need to use more input parameters including shadows, relative position of each candlestick, etc. so that it can be, for example, 60 inputs for each row - read more in Formalizing Candlesticks Pattern for Neural Network Prediction and Two More Inputs for Candlestick Pattern Recognition.
