Abstract: This study aims at establishing whether deep reinforcement learning techniques are suitable for applications in trading and the effects that some practical aspects such as the security being traded or implementation details have on the performance. The agents interacting with the trading environments consist of variants of a basic deep Q-network algorithm trained and tested on different timeseries of the same length. The entire software implementation is using the Python programming language.
