In trading strategy layer, traditional Constant Proportion Portfolio Insurance (CPPI) strategy only considers protecting floor wealth. This study considers a goal-directed strategy to protect goal wealth in advance. Combining the CPPI strategy and the goal-directed strategy, this research adopts a piecewise linear goal-directed CPPI (GDCPPI) strategy to trade securities. In technology layer, this research applies the Learning Classifier System (LCS) to form and adapt the trading strategy pool and choose a suitable trading strategy against the consecutively changed market states. With the help of learning classifier system, this study can deal with the dynamic pattern evolution of the piecewise linear goal-directed CPPI strategy. This study executes many experiments under Brownian motion, GA and LCS technologies to generate the piecewise linear goal-directed CPPI strategies. Experimental results show that the LCS technology outperforms GA technology and GA technology outperforms Brownian motion technology further in generating piecewise linear goal-directed CPPI strategies.
