Abstract

Researchers put efforts into explanations of the momentum phenomenon and improvements of the momentum strategy since the emergence of momentum in 1993. Interested in anomalies appearing as exhibited in traditional asset markets, adequate studies are launched on the nascent phenomenon emergers in the last decade, the cryptocurrency market. Recent studies have shown that there is hardly any cross-sectional momentum in the cryptocurrency market. To explore the momentum anomaly additionally in the cryptocurrency market, this paper implemented a time-series momentum on cross-sectional winners for improvement. Previous studies have introduced detecting the turning point between long-term slow time-series factor and short-term fast time-series factor contributes to predicting the trend well. Furthermore, a threshold decided by a certain machine learning model suggests better performance. In this paper. A multilayer perceptron (MLP) is utilized to learn the weights of time-series factors. The combination of cross-sectional momentum and time-series momentum shows advantages and the MLP learned weighted strategy is preferable.
