    Abstract
    
    We report on a technique based on multi-agent games which 
    has potential use in the prediction of future movements of financial 
    time-series. A third-party game is trained on a black-box time-series, and 
    is then run into the future to extract next-step and multi-step predictions. 
    In addition to the possibility of identifying profit opportunities, the 
    technique may prove useful in the development of improved risk management 
    strategies.
