Abstract
The study will suggest a hybrid model as a combination of Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks that is not a literature review previously to produce Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) signals that are best in optimizing trade entries in the S&P 500 Index. The traditional MACD indicators use historical price data, which also has lags. This study aims at reducing this limitation through proper application of linear analysis using ARIMA model and non-linear analysis using LSTM model. Based on the previous studies, the hybrid ARIMA-LSTM model will be used to predict future prices, where the signals of the meta-MACD will be obtained. Transformer model will identify support and resistance levels to select the best entry points to trade, the meta-MACD signals will be used.
