Abstract

Predicting stock market behavior is one of the major challenges for any investor of variable income. However, predict the behavior of such a fluctuating market as the determined by the set of values of the IBEX 35 index, where many factors can influence on it, it is a problem with difficult solution.Currently there are a wide variety of available methods to help investors perform this task. However, most of them make their estimations based solely on their previous behaviors, so the occurrence of unforeseen external factors, can rendered invalid any initial estimation.Faced with such problems, the use of Soft-Computing techniques, due to its ability to work with inaccurate and incomplete data, results a versatile tool in many environments. Therefore, in this paper is proposed a method based on the use of soft-computing techniques to help predict the stock market behavior.
