Random Number Seed

The number used to determine the starting point for a series of random numbers. Random numbers generated by computers are typically not truly random. Computer-generated random numbers are produced by algorithms that simulate randomly generated series. The starting point of these series is determined using a seed.

Raw Data

Data that is not calculated or predicted. Raw data is typically put into TradingSolutions by importing it from an external file or the Internet. However, it can also be entered manually from the Spreadsheet View.

Recurrent Network

A neural network topology that delays one or more of the processing values in the network so that they will be used in the calculation of the next output, rather than the current output.

&  For help with neural network topologies, see the help for the Modify Field Dialog: Prediction Model page.

Resistance

The resistance to the price of a stock increasing. The higher that the price of a stock increases, the more resistance it encounters to increasing higher. This is the opposite of Support.
