Abstract
Fourteen kinds of technical pattern in A-share market have been automatically identified in this paper, using nonparametric kernel regression method and quantitative recognition rules that are constrained and improved to make the model more feasible and effective for investment practice. K–S test shows that the distribution of the stock yield following the recognized patterns statistically differs from that of random sampling. Clustering analysis also suggests that most of the identified technical patterns have distinguishable effects on the subsequent stock price movement. These findings provide useful guidance for the development of innovative investment models in high-frequency automatic stock trading.
