Abstract

Recently, more and more investors have seen the huge profits that the digital currency market can bring, and Bitcoin price predictions are becoming more valuable both academically and in terms of business value. In this paper, we use the daily price of bitcoin from September 12, 2016, to September 10, 2021. Data pre-processing includes moving average (MA) and BIAS. To find out the causality relationship between two factors, we use Granger causality test. Then we predict bitcoin price with Support Vector Machine (SVM) based on sliding window from machine learning methods and Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARMA) method from statistical methods. The results show that there is causality relationship between gold and bitcoin. Besides, by comparing the Mean Squared errors (MSE) of 7-day-model, 14-day-model and ARMA model, we find that the ARMA model outperform the others, which reminds the investors to focus more on this model.
