This is the code repository for Machine Learning for Finance, published by Packt. It contains all the supporting project files necessary to work through the book from start to finish.

Machine Learning for Finance explores new advances in machine learning and shows how they can be applied in the financial sector. It explains the concepts and algorithms behind the main machine learning techniques and provides example Python code for implementing the models yourself.

The code in this repository is quite compute heavy and best run on a GPU enabled machine. The datascience platform Kaggle offers free GPU recourses together with free online Jupyter notebooks. To make edits on the Kaggle notebooks, click 'Fork' to create a new copy of the notebook. You will need a Kaggle account for this.

Alternatively you can just view the notebooks on NB Viewer or download the code and run it locally.
