Summary: | Earning via real-time predictions with the experience in the visible trend directions of an investment instrument in the past requires a different perspective on charts. Indicators and formations within the scope of technical analysis constitute the most significant basis of this perspective. Those who can generate a high income in financial markets and even be more successful than large companies are actually the ones interpreting the data in a different way. In this study, a model which had never been encountered in the literature before, was designed through a different perspective on the same data, enabling the movements of an investment element over the 2D candlestick chart to be recognized as a “Buy-Sell” object respectively and to decide on the trend direction as a result. The model is trained by state-of-the-art, real-time object detection system (You Only Look Once) YOLO; for the training, one-year candlestick charts belonging to the stocks traded on Borsa İstanbul (BIST) between 2000-2018 were used. The model, which can make a “Buy-Sell” decision without the need for an additional time series except for the views on the visual candlestick charts, is promising in terms of its successful predictions. Its ultimate aim is to provide a foresight strengthening the “Buy-Sell” decisions to be made in the decision-making process following the other basic and technical analyses in addition to its stand-alone use in making investment decisions. The effect of this foresight on the success can clearly be seen on the test results received. In the results, the model was found to be successful by 85% while a 100% profit was generated. Besides, the model can be used for all the time series for which candlestick charts can be created.
