This paper attends in large part to investors and traders to deduce a method for predicting the stock market. The collected data ranges from Jan 2009 to Dec 2012. Every training set is selected from January through October and the sets left over are used for testing. What we have discovered is that Empirical Mode decomposition (EMD) method supersedes all other models on the Mean square error and Mean Absolute error criteria. We may also evaluate the performance of these models by changing strategy direction and comparing payoffs to understand which framework performs as a better forecasting model. It is establishes by the results of the study that the same model serves better for forecasting in trading strategy and could rule over other possible models for most periods under consideration.
