PyBrain neural network for stock prediction won't learn

I am trying to code a neural network that can forecast some data. Therefore I use PyBrain for python. I figured out that a SupervisedDataset would be a good fit for this task. I took some stock data and put 5 values from it as input and the sixths as the target. Then I build a feed forward network with the buildNetwork function and trained it with the BackpropTrainer.

Anyway, the error won't get less. It is stuck at ~0.6 and it seems to oscillate around there. I tried to tweak the momentum and the learning rate but it didn't help. What am I doing wrong?

from pybrain.tools.shortcuts import buildNetwork
FNN = buildNetwork(DS.indim, 15, DS.outdim, bias=True)

from pybrain.supervised.trainers import BackpropTrainer
TRAINER = BackpropTrainer(FNN, dataset=DS, learningrate = 0.005, \
    momentum=0.1, verbose=True)

for i in range(1000):
    TRAINER.train()

Edit: Some of the comments doubted that those data would fit for a neural network in general. Therefore I did the same net in MATLAB and it worked just fine. After 11 training epochs the error was less then 0.002.

Furthermore I tried to use the SupervisedDataset from PyBrain but this wouldn't work as well. I am out of ideas now.

I found a solution. Turned out the stock data had to be normalized first. So i wrote this function:

def normalization(data, new_max, new_min):
    old_max = 0
    old_min = 0

    # Finde altes Max- und Minimum
    for i in range(len(data)):
        if old_max < data[i]:
            old_max = data[i]
        elif old_min > data[i]:
            old_min = data[i]

    old_range = (old_max - old_min)

    for i in range(len(data)):
        if old_range == 0:
            data[i] = new_min
        else:
            new_range = (new_max - new_min)
            data[i] = (((data[i] - old_min) * new_range) / old_range) + new_min

I scaled the data between 0 and 1 and voilà - the network would finally learn.
