Optimizing the combination of technical indicators for generating optimized stock portfolios — •Thorsten Rehberg and Ingo Morgenstern — Universität Regensburg

We are using Threshold-Accepting for optimizing portfolios with many different indicators from the technical analysis. Therefore we create a cost-function containing 120 technical analysis indicators with different weights. To find the optimal values of these weights, we use a self-learning algorithm, which adjusts these values in such a manner that the resulting portfolios have a huge average return and also a limited risk. Applying these technique to create portfolios with stocks from the DAX, MDAX and S&P500 results in a significant better average performance.
