TraderNet-CRv2 - Combining Deep Reinforcement Learning with Technical Analysis and Trend Monitoring on Cryptocurrency Markets

Description

This system architecture is an extended version of the original TraderNet-CR architecture, which is described by this paper: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-031-08333-4_25. In this work, we combine Proximal Policy Optimization algorithm (PPO), which is a DRL learning algorithm, with 2 rule-based safety mechanisms: N-Consecutive & Smurfing. Our experiments on 5 popular cryptocurrencies show very promising results.

Technical Indicators

Technical analysis has been applied on market data in order to train TraderNet. The following popular technical indicators have been used:

• EMA (Exponential Moving Average)
• DEMA (Double-Exponential Moving Average)
• MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergenc)
• AROON
• CCI (Commodity Channel Inde)
• ADX (Average Directional Inde)
• STOCH (Stochastic Oscillator)
• RSI (Relative Strength Index)
• OBV (On-Balance Volume)
• BBANDS (Bolliger Bands)
• VWAP (Volume-Weighted Average Pric)
• ADL (Accumulation/Distribution Line)

Requirements

To run and evaluate our agent, You need to download the following libraries/packages:

• Python $\geq 3.6$ (https://www.python.org/)
• Numpy (https://numpy.org/)
• Pandas (https://pandas.pydata.org/)
• Matplotlib (https://matplotlib.org/)
• Tensorflow (https://www.tensorflow.org/)
• TF-Agents (https://www.tensorflow.org/agents)
• TA (https://technical-analysis-library-in-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/)
• PyTrends (https://pypi.org/project/pytrends/)
• Scikit-Learn (https://scikit-learn.org/stable/)

Instructions

Download Python 3.6 or higher and the libraries that are described on requirements using pip installer (e.g. pip install numpy). Then:

1. Run download_datasets.py to download the datasets from CoinAPI platform (https://www.coinapi.io/).
2. Use train_tradernet.ipynb to train TraderNet module.
3. Use train_smurf.ipynb to train Smurf module.
4. Use integrated.ipynb to evaluate the Integrated agent.
