+# **Apple Stock Price Prediction Based on 40 Years Data**
+
+This is a Dataset for Stock Prediction on Apple Inc. This dataset start from 1980 to 2021. It was collected from Yahoo Finance. Here's a breakdown of the dataset columns:
+
+- **Date:** The date of the stock price record, providing a chronological timeline for the dataset.
+- **Open:** The opening price, representing the initial trading price of Apple Inc.'s stock on a given day.
+- **High:** The highest stock price during a specific period, providing insights into peak price levels.
+- **Low:** The lowest stock price observed during a defined period, indicating potential fluctuations in value.
+- **Close:** The closing price, representing the last recorded price at the end of a regular trading session.
+- **Adj Close (Adjusted Close):** Adjusts the closing price for corporate actions, offering a more accurate representation of the stock's true value.
+- **Volume:** Measures the number of shares traded, providing insights into interest and activity in Apple Inc.'s stock.
+
+The dataset spans several decades, making it a valuable resource for various analytical purposes, including trend identification, volatility evaluation, and predictive modeling like the ongoing LSTM-based stock price prediction exploration.

+
+### 📢 Conclusion
+Based on the evaluation metrics, the LSTM+CONV1D model outperforms the LSTM model in predicting Apple stock prices. The combination of LSTM and 1D convolutional layers allows the model to capture both long-term dependencies and local patterns in the time series data, leading to more accurate predictions.
+
+### Best Fitted Model
+The LSTM+CONV1D model is identified as the best-fitted model for predicting Apple stock prices due to its higher accuracy compared to the LSTM model.
