In Stock Market Prediction, the aim is to predict the future value of the financial stocks of a company. The recent trend in stock market prediction technologies is the use of machine learning which makes predictions based on the values of current stock market indices by training on
their previous values. Machine learning itself employs different models to make prediction easier and authentic. The paper focuses on the use of Regression and LSTM based Machine learning to predict stock values. Factors considered are open, close, low, high and volume. A correct prediction
of stocks can lead to huge profits for the seller and the broker. Frequently, it is brought out that prediction is chaotic rather than random, which means it can be predicted by carefully analyzing the history of the respective stock market. Machine learning is an efficient way to represent
such processes. It predicts a market value close to the tangible value, thereby increasing the accuracy. The introduction of machine learning to the area of stock prediction has appealed to many researchers because of its efficient and accurate measurements. In Stock Market Prediction, the

of finance and establishing businesses. The stock market is totally uncertain as the prices of stocks keep fluctuating on a daily basis because of numerous factors that influence it. One of the traditional ways of predicting stock prices was by using only historical data. But with time it
was observed that other factors such as peoples' sentiments and other news events occurring in and around the country affect the stock market, for e.g.national elections, natural calamities etc. Investors in the stock market seek to maximize their profits for which they require tools to analyze
the prices and trends of various stocks. Machine learning algorithms have been used to devise new techniques to build prediction models that can forecast the prices of stock and tell about the market trend with good accuracy. Many prediction models have been proposed to incorporate all the
major factors affecting the price of stocks. Due to the correlated nature of stock prices, conventional batch processing methods cannot be utilized efficiently for stock market analysis. We propose an online learning algorithm that utilizes a kind of recurrent neural network (RNN) called Long
Short Term Memory (LSTM), where the weights are adjusted for individual data points using stochastic gradient descent. This will provide more accurate results when compared to existing stock price prediction algorithms. The network is trained and evaluated for accuracy with various sizes of
data, and the results are tabulated. A comparison with respect to accuracy is then performed against an Artificial Neural Network.
