This article continues our look at reinforcement learning by considering another algorithm, namely the Monte-Carlo. This algorithm is very similar and in fact arguably encompasses both Q-Learning and SARSA in that it can be either on-policy or off-policy. What sets it apart though is the emphasis on episodes. These simply are a way of batching the reinforcement learning cycle updates, that we introduced in this article, such that the updating of the Q-Values of the Q-Map happens less frequently.

In the 20th century, Richard Donchian established a trend-following strategy through his studies of financial markets, which later evolved into the Donchian Channels. We briefly discussed his work in a previous article, but today we will focus on implementing the strategies associated with his theory. According to various sources, the channels are believed to encompass multiple strategies within their framework. The abundance of literature on Donchian Channels suggests the continued effectiveness
