Abstract: Feature subset selection in stock prediction is increasingly attracting more interest within the research community. This is because the movement of the stock price is influenced by many features in the stock market, and it is a challenging task to select the optimal predictive features. Feature selection is a pre-processing step of data mining that aims to justify predictive features from a given dataset. Using technical indicators (TIs) in stock market forecasting is widely adopted by investors and researchers. Using a minimal number of these technical indicators is required as a pivot task and used for almost all successful predictions. However, obtaining the predictive feature subset remains an area of active research. Using efficient feature selection will lead to the minimum number of relevant features and thus affect the prediction performance in diverse ways. Therefore, in this study, we intend to propose a feature selection that can lead to better prediction performance.
