As we already know, portfolio management is the continuous reallocation of funds across different multiple financial products (assets). In this work, the time is divided into equal length periods, where each period T = 30 minutes. At the beginning of each period, the trading agent reallocates the fund across different assets.

These price metrics are as follows:

• Opening price
• Highest price
• Lowest price
• Closing price

For a continuous market (such as our test case), the opening price of an asset in a period t is its closing price ...
