Parameter Optimization Algorithm Trading MR

With the spread of internet and the improvement of internet speed and
storage capacity, data has been flooding everywhere, and here comes the
need of a tool to deal with the scale and complexity of the data.
Hadoop is a rapidly growing tool for parallel computing and dealing
with raw data, and it uses the idea of MapReduce programming to realize
the parallel computing.
For this project, we have achieved by using MapReduce program for
optimizing the parameters of a trading strategy.
Algorithm trading is make use of computer programs for entering trading
orders, in which computer algorithms decide on every aspects of the
order, such as the timing, price, and quantity of the order.
Before an algorithm is put into practical use, it is necessary to back
test the algorithm using enough historical price data to validate and
optimize the algorithm in terms of profitability, stability, etc.
