The conventional double exponential smoothing is a forecasting method that troubles the forecaster with a tremendous choice of its parameter, alpha. The choice of alpha would greatly influence the accuracy of prediction. In this paper, an integrated forecasting method named Golden Exponential Smoothing (GES) was proposed to solve the problem. The conventional method was reformed and interposed with golden section search such that an optimum alpha which minimizes the errors of forecasting could be identified in the algorithm training process.  Numerical simulations of four sets of times series data were employed to test the efficiency of GES model. The findings show that the GES model was self-adjusted according to the situation and converged fast in the algorithm training process. The optimum alpha, which was identified from the algorithm training stage, demonstrated good performance in the stage of Model Testing and Usage.

Gold investment is currently a trend in society, especially the millennial generation. Gold investment for the younger generation is an advantage for the future. Gold bullion is often used as a promising investment, on other hand, the digital gold is available which it is stored online on the gold trading platform. However, any investment certainly has risks, and the price of gold bullion fluctuates from day to day. People who invest in gold hopes to benefit from the initial purchase price even if they must wait up to five years. The problem is how they can notice the best time to sell and buy gold. Therefore, this research proposes a forecasting approach based on time series data and the selling of gold bullion prices per gram in Indonesia. The experiment reported that Holt’s double exponential smoothing provided better forecasting performance than polynomial regression. Holt’s double exponential smoothing reached the minimum of Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) 0.056% in the training set, 0.047% in one-step testing, and 0.898% in multi-step testing.

Algoritma DES (Double Exponential Smoothing) Brown merupakan algoritma peramalan yang digunakan untuk memprediksi data deret berkala baik berpola tren positif maupun tren negatif. Namun algoritma ini mempunyai kelemahan yaitu dalam menentukan nilai parameter optimum untuk meminimasi error peramalan (MAPE), nilai parameter tersebut dicari menggunakan metode Golden Section dimana sebelumnya dicari secara manual menggunakan percobaan berulang kali. Penelitian ini menggunakan 60 data berpola tren yang dianalisis untuk pengelompokan pola data tren positif dan negatif dimana selanjutnya dilakukan proses peramalan, evaluasi dan pengujian untuk mengetahui jenis pola data tren apa yang terbaik. Dari hasil perhitungan dan pengujian diketahui bahwa parameter optimasi menghasilkan nilai MAPE yang optimum, dimana selanjutnya nilai parameter tersebut dilakukan proses peramalan pada kelompok pola data tren positif dan negatif yang menghasilkan rata-rata nilai MAPE sebesar 9,73401% (highly accurate) untuk data berpola tren positif dan 15,78467% (good forecast) untuk data berpola tren negatif. Algoritma peramalan DES Brown dengan metode optimasi parameter menghasilkan nilai pendekatan terhadap data asli jika data tersebut menunjukkan penambahan atau penurunan nilai disekitar nilai rata-rata. Sebaliknya, akan menghasilkan nilai MAPE yang tinggi (tidak akurat) jika data tersebut memiliki lonjakan periode nilai data. Dari kedua kelompok nilai MAPE tersebut dilakukan uji t statistik yang menyatakan bahwa data berpola tren positif () menghasilkan nilai rata-rata MAPE lebih baik dibandingkan data berpola tren negatif (μ2).
