Howison %J Quantitative Finance %D 2001 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/S0378-4371(01)00299-0 %X We report on a technique based on multi-agent games which has potential use in the prediction of future movements of financial time-series. A third-party game is trained on a black-box time-series, and is then run into the future to extract next-step and multi-step predictions. In addition to the possibility of identifying profit opportunities, the technique may prove useful in the development of improved risk management strategies. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/cond-mat/0105303v1
