Cover Story: This study examines the effectiveness of using a large dataset and advanced methodologies, including sentiment analysis and machine learning, to forecast foreign exchange rates (FX) and commodity prices. Using a large dataset, we explore whether combining sentiment analysis with machine learning outperforms in terms of FX. We employ techniques such as random forest, extreme gradient boosting, long short-term memory, and autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) to compare their forecasting performance. The study proposes novel methodologies that integrate seasonal decomposition and wavelet transformation with ARIMA and machine learning techniques and applies them to gold futures prices and euro FX against the US dollar to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approaches. View this paper
