Therefore, the criteria affecting stock selection in technical analysis have been examined. Consequently, from among the companies listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange during the years 2011 to 2021, 135 companies were selected as samples through a systematic elimination method and analyzed using a combination of innovative neural network methods and metaheuristic algorithms.</p> <p><strong>Findings:</strong> The results have shown that such a trading system produces comparable or better results compared to Buy &amp; Hold and other trading systems for a wide range of stocks even over relatively longer periods.</p> <p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>For future work, it is planned to focus on combining more technical parameters and using convolutional neural networks (CNN) or other deep neural network models.</p> https://journals.kmanpub.com/index.php/ijimob/article/download/1899/2383
