Best models to use

I was surprised to see that with the same processing a linear model outperforms lightGBM. Was wondering if this was the case for others and if you have found that this was still the case after feature engineering?

Thanks!

Hi @sparked!

I haven't done any feature engineering yet.

I have just completed a model selection process yesterday

using the raw data with missing values filled with zeroes.

And I also noticed that linear models outperforms trees and

ensemble models. I could say that it is due to the existence of a

linear relationship between close price and open, high and low prices ...

Yeah. Linear model, and KNeighborsRegressor will output any tree and ensemble model.
