Abstract

This paper presents a method for predicting nonlinear time series. It is based on the multiscale filtering, fundamental and technical model and artificial neural networks. In the technical model we used wavelet transform for disjoin the time series trends then to smooth the economic time series by multiscale filtering. We used too the fundamental analysis, that is, financial and macroeconomics variables to improve the network forecasting. The results were compared with the technical analysis showing that the multiscale filtering and addition of the fundamental variables increase the network forecasting ability.
