So let’s begin !

In this article I will show you how to write a python program that predicts the price of stocks using a machine learning technique called Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). This program is really simple and I doubt any major profit will be made from this program, but it’s slightly better than guessing! Remember the stock price can be affected by many different things.

Long short-term memory (LSTM) is an artificial recurrent neural network (RNN) architecture used in the field of deep learning. Unlike standard feed forward neural networks, LSTM has feedback connections. It can not only process single data points (such as…
