7 Conclusions
This paper carried out an exhaustive review of the
specialized literature on ANNs and made a comparati-
ve analysis according to their performances in forecasting
stock indices (or stocks) and exchange rates. In this regard,
it is important to point out that the MLP is one of the most
used networks in finance, because it is a feedforward mul-
tilayer network with non-linear node functions. In order to
support this, we have reviewed thirty applications in the li-
terature. We found that more than 40 % of the analyzed re-
searches support the idea that the MLP is the best network
or at least it has the same performance with respect to the
proposal networks. However, it is shown that the MLP has
important delimitations in several respects: network archi-
tecture, basic functions and initialization weights. One way
to improve the performance of the MLP is to apply intelli-
gent methods. As a result we get a hybrid network which
is expected to provide a more accurate forecast.
