Cataloged from PDF version of internship report. Includes bibliographical references (pages 67-74). The unpredictability and volatility of the stock market render it challenging to make a substantial pro t using any generalized scheme. Many previous studies tried di erent techniques to build a machine learning model, which can make a signi cant pro t in the US stock market by performing live trading. However, very few studies have focused on the importance of nding the best features for a particular period for trading. Our top approach used the performance to narrow down the features from a total of 148 to about 30. Furthermore, the top 25 features were dynamically selected before each time training our machine learning model. It uses ensemble learning with four classi ers: Gaussian Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Logistic Regression with L1 regularization and Stochastic Gradient Descent, to decide whether to go long or short on a particular stock. Our best model performed daily trade between July 2011 and January 2019, generating 54.35% pro t. We further propose a novel model which uses Ada-boost to nd the weights of each of the features and then apply TOPSIS to select the best stocks. Lastly, we survey the machine learning techniques used for ethical decision-making in stock trading, which will bene t any further research work on Responsible AI in Finance. A. K. M. Amanat Ullah M.
