The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Trading Strategies and Decision-Making in Financial Markets
1 viewsAbstract
This project explores the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in contemporary financial markets, focusing on how machine learning, natural language processing, and big data analytics support traders and investors. The study examines the shift from traditional, human-led analysis to automated systems capable of processing vast datasets in real-time to identify profitable patterns and arbitrage opportunities. Key areas of focus include algorithmic trading, sentiment analysis, and automated portfolio management. The findings indicate that AI significantly enhances decision-making speed, improves prediction accuracy, and reduces the negative impact of emotional biases in trading. However, the research also highlights critical challenges, such as "black box" model opacity, the risk of market instability due to algorithmic crowding, and cybersecurity vulnerabilities. The study concludes that while AI offers a powerful competitive edge for both institutional and individual investors, its success remains dependent on human oversight and the development of robust regulatory frameworks to ensure market integrity and transparency.
