This implies a high probability rate of 90% for a continued upward trend, offering substantial weight to a bullish thesis.
Considering the high reliability of this bullish signal, the AI trading robot's success with FTNT can be better understood. The AI algorithm, leveraging its machine learning and predictive capabilities, would have recognized the impending bullish crossover and taken a long position on FTNT.
The application of AI in trading holds numerous advantages. It can process and interpret large data sets with speed and accuracy that are humanly impossible, identify patterns, and make predictions based on a variety of inputs. Furthermore, AI systems can be trained to learn from the success or failure of past trades, thereby continually refining their decision-making processes and improving future trade accuracy.
In this case, the AI trading robot's decision to capitalize on the bullish signal from the moving average crossover resulted in a profitable week with an impressive 5.54% profit margin for FTNT.
