Integrate a Foreign Exchange (Forex) Rate Prediction model into the project. This feature should include various machine learning and deep learning algorithms, such as LSTM, and Random Forest, to analyze historical exchange rate data and predict future trends. The system should support data preprocessing, feature engineering, model training, validation, and deployment. Users should be able to input historical Forex data, select prediction horizons, and visualize the predicted exchange rates.
# Foreign Exchange Rate Prediction

## Overview

This project demonstrates the prediction of foreign exchange (Forex) rates using machine learning and deep learning algorithms. The system employs models such as Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Random Forest to analyze historical Forex data and forecast future exchange rates. The project includes data preprocessing, feature engineering, model training, validation, and deployment functionalities.

## Use Case

Use Case
In real-world applications, accurate Forex rate predictions are crucial for:

In real-life applications, the Foreign Exchange Rate Prediction model can significantly benefit financial institutions, traders, and businesses engaged in international trade. Accurate predictions of Forex rates enable traders to make informed decisions, reducing risks and maximizing profits. For financial institutions, such predictions can aid in managing foreign currency reserves and optimizing transaction costs. Businesses involved in import/export activities can use the predictions to plan better and hedge against currency risks, ensuring more stable financial operations. Integrating this feature allows users to leverage advanced predictive analytics, enhancing decision-making and strategic planning in the volatile Forex market.

3. **Data Preparation:**
- The dataset is split into training and test sets.
- Features are shaped for the LSTM model.

4. **Model Training:**
- An LSTM model is defined and compiled.
- The model is trained using the training dataset.

5. **Prediction:**
- Predictions are made using the trained model.
- The results are inverse-transformed to the original scale.

6. **Visualization:**
- The predicted and actual exchange rates are visualized using matplotlib.

7. **Evaluation:**
- The model's performance is assessed using metrics like Mean Squared Error (MSE).

## Conclusion

The Foreign Exchange Rate Prediction project effectively demonstrates the application of machine learning and deep learning techniques to forecast exchange rates. By leveraging the LSTM model and comprehensive preprocessing steps, the system provides valuable insights into future currency trends.

The project's results highlight the potential of predictive analytics in the Forex market, offering users the ability to make more informed decisions.
