Book Deterministic and Stochastic Methods for Estimation of Intra Day Seasonal Components with High Frequency Data

Download or read book Deterministic and Stochastic Methods for Estimation of Intra Day Seasonal Components with High Frequency Data written by Claudio Morana and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We introduce a model for the analysis of intraday volatility of exchange rates returns, based on the structural time series methodology. The stochastic seasonal component is useful to model intra-day effects which may be different from one day to the other. The model is estimated with high frequency data for the Deutsche mark-U.S. dollar exchange rates for 1993 and 1996. The structural time series model performs well in terms of coherence with the theoretical aggregation properties of GARCH models, it is effective both in terms of one-period and multi-period forecasting ability and in terms of describing reactions to announcements of US employment reports.

Book Using Self Organizing Maps to Adjust Intra Day Seasonality

Download or read book Using Self Organizing Maps to Adjust Intra Day Seasonality written by Walid Ben Omrane and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The existence of an intra-day seasonality component within financial market variables (volatility, volume, activity,. . .), has been highlighted in many previous works. To adjust raw data from their cyclical component, many studies start by implementing the intra-daily average observations model (IAOM) and/or some smoothing techniques (e.g. the kernel method) in order to remove the day of the week effect. When seasonality involves only a deterministic component, IAOM method succeed in estimating periodicity almost without estimation error. However, when seasonality contains both deterministic and stochastic components (e.g. closed days), we show that either the IAOM or the kernel method fail to capture it. We introduce the use of the self-organizing maps (SOM) as a solution. SOM are based on neural network learning and nonlinear projections. Their flexibility allows capturing seasonality even in thepresence of stochastic cycles.

Book Seasonal Adjustment Methods and Real Time Trend Cycle Estimation

Download or read book Seasonal Adjustment Methods and Real Time Trend Cycle Estimation written by Estela Bee Dagum and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-20 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores widely used seasonal adjustment methods and recent developments in real time trend-cycle estimation. It discusses in detail the properties and limitations of X12ARIMA, TRAMO-SEATS and STAMP - the main seasonal adjustment methods used by statistical agencies. Several real-world cases illustrate each method and real data examples can be followed throughout the text. The trend-cycle estimation is presented using nonparametric techniques based on moving averages, linear filters and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces, taking recent advances into account. The book provides a systematical treatment of results that to date have been scattered throughout the literature. Seasonal adjustment and real time trend-cycle prediction play an essential part at all levels of activity in modern economies. They are used by governments to counteract cyclical recessions, by central banks to control inflation, by decision makers for better modeling and planning and by hospitals, manufacturers, builders, transportation, and consumers in general to decide on appropriate action. This book appeals to practitioners in government institutions, finance and business, macroeconomists, and other professionals who use economic data as well as academic researchers in time series analysis, seasonal adjustment methods, filtering and signal extraction. It is also useful for graduate and final-year undergraduate courses in econometrics and time series with a good understanding of linear regression and matrix algebra, as well as ARIMA modelling.

Book Is the Diurnal Pattern Sufficient to Explain Intraday Variation In Volatility  A Nonparametric Assessment

Download or read book Is the Diurnal Pattern Sufficient to Explain Intraday Variation In Volatility A Nonparametric Assessment written by Kim Christensen and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, we propose a nonparametric way to test the hypothesis that time-variation in intraday volatility is caused solely by a deterministic and recurrent diurnal pattern. We assume that noisy high-frequency data from a discretely sampled jump-diffusion process are available. The test is then based on asset returns, which are deflated by the seasonal component and therefore homoskedastic under the null. To construct our test statistic, we extend the concept of pre-averaged bipower variation to a general Itô semimartingale setting via a truncation device. We prove a central limit theorem for this statistic and construct a positive semi-definite estimator of the asymptotic covariance matrix. The t-statistic (after pre-averaging and jump-truncation) diverges in the presence of stochastic volatility and has a standard normal distribution otherwise. We show that replacing the true diurnal factor with a model-free jump- and noise-robust estimator does not affect the asymptotic theory. A Monte Carlo simulation also shows this substitution has no discernable impact in finite samples. The test is, however, distorted by small infinite-activity price jumps. To improve inference, we propose a new bootstrap approach, which leads to almost correctly sized tests of the null hypothesis. We apply the developed framework to a large cross-section of equity high-frequency data and find that the diurnal pattern accounts for a rather significant fraction of intraday variation in volatility, but important sources of heteroskedasticity remain present in the data.

Book Estimating Stochastic Volatility and Jumps Using High Frequency Data and Bayesian Methods

Download or read book Estimating Stochastic Volatility and Jumps Using High Frequency Data and Bayesian Methods written by Milan Fičura and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are comparing two approaches for stochastic volatility and jumps estimation in the EUR/USD time series - the non-parametric power-variation approach using high-frequency returns, and the parametric Bayesian approach (MCMC estimation of SVJD models) using daily returns. We find that both of the methods do identify continuous stochastic volatility similarly, but they do not identify similarly the jump component. Firstly - the jumps estimated using the non-parametric high-frequency estimators are much more numerous than in the case of the Bayesian method using daily data. More importantly - we find that the probabilities of jump occurrences assigned to every day by both of the methods are virtually no rank-correlated (Spearman rank correlation is 0.0148) meaning that the two methods do not identify jumps at the same days. Actually the jump probabilities inferred using the non-parametric approach are not much correlated even with the daily realized variance and the daily squared returns, indicating that the discontinuous price changes (jumps) observed on high-frequencies may not be distinguishable (from the continuous volatility) on the daily frequency. As an additional result we find strong evidence for jump size dependence and jump clustering (based on the self-exciting Hawkes process) of the jumps identified using the non-parametric method (the shrinkage estimator).

Book Econometric Modelling of Stock Market Intraday Activity

Download or read book Econometric Modelling of Stock Market Intraday Activity written by Luc Bauwens and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past 25 years, applied econometrics has undergone tremen dous changes, with active developments in fields of research such as time series, labor econometrics, financial econometrics and simulation based methods. Time series analysis has been an active field of research since the seminal work by Box and Jenkins (1976), who introduced a gen eral framework in which time series can be analyzed. In the world of financial econometrics and the application of time series techniques, the ARCH model of Engle (1982) has shifted the focus from the modelling of the process in itself to the modelling of the volatility of the process. In less than 15 years, it has become one of the most successful fields of 1 applied econometric research with hundreds of published papers. As an alternative to the ARCH modelling of the volatility, Taylor (1986) intro duced the stochastic volatility model, whose features are quite similar to the ARCH specification but which involves an unobserved or latent component for the volatility. While being more difficult to estimate than usual GARCH models, stochastic volatility models have found numerous applications in the modelling of volatility and more particularly in the econometric part of option pricing formulas. Although modelling volatil ity is one of the best known examples of applied financial econometrics, other topics (factor models, present value relationships, term structure 2 models) were also successfully tackled.
