Good morning everyone, It has come to my noticed that a simple linear regression model outperform tree algorithms...also trying to do some feature Engineering just improve the prediction slightly.

Could someone give me a reason why this is the case? Thanks

PS: trying to do data normalization didn't work too

The close price has a close relationship with "open", "high" and "low" prices. This relationship is linear in nature and could be the reason for your observation.
