This article describes the implementation of a regression model based on a decision tree. The model should predict prices of financial assets. We have already prepared the data, trained and evaluated the model, as well as adjusted and optimized it. However, it is important to note that this model is intended for study purposes only and should not be used in real trading.

During the offline learning, we optimize the Agent's policy based on the training sample data. The resulting strategy gives the Agent confidence in its actions. However, such optimism is not always justified and can cause increased risks during the model operation. Today we will look at one of the methods to reduce these risks.

In this article, we will look at the principles of creating multi-symbol, multi-period indicators. We will also see how to access the data of such indicators from Expert Advisors and other indicators. We will consider the main features of using multi-indicators in Expert Advisors and indicators and will see how to plot them through custom indicator buffers.

The article considers the theoretical application of quantization in the construction of tree models and showcases the implemented quantization methods in CatBoost. No complex mathematical equations are used.

Data formats used to represent machine learning models play a crucial role in their effectiveness. In recent years, several new types of data have emerged, specifically designed for working with deep learning models. In this article, we will focus on two new data formats that have become widely adopted in modern models.
