Book Estimation of Stochastic Volatility Models with Diagnostics

Download or read book Estimation of Stochastic Volatility Models with Diagnostics written by A. Ronald Gallant and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efficient Method of Moments (EMM) is used to fit the standard stochastic volatility model and various extensions to several daily financial time series. EMM matches to the score of a model determined by data analysis called the score generator. Discrepancies reveal characteristics of data that stochastic volatility models cannot approximate. The two score generators employed here are "Semiparametric ARCH" and "Nonlinear Nonparametric". With the first, the standard model is rejected, although some extensions are accepted. With the second, all versions are rejected. The extensions required for an adequate fit are so elaborate that nonparametric specifications are probably more convenient.

Book Parameter Estimation in Stochastic Volatility Models

Download or read book Parameter Estimation in Stochastic Volatility Models written by Jaya P. N. Bishwal and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-06 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops alternative methods to estimate the unknown parameters in stochastic volatility models, offering a new approach to test model accuracy. While there is ample research to document stochastic differential equation models driven by Brownian motion based on discrete observations of the underlying diffusion process, these traditional methods often fail to estimate the unknown parameters in the unobserved volatility processes. This text studies the second order rate of weak convergence to normality to obtain refined inference results like confidence interval, as well as nontraditional continuous time stochastic volatility models driven by fractional Levy processes. By incorporating jumps and long memory into the volatility process, these new methods will help better predict option pricing and stock market crash risk. Some simulation algorithms for numerical experiments are provided.

Book Efficient Estimation of Stochastic Volatility Using Noisy Observations

Download or read book Efficient Estimation of Stochastic Volatility Using Noisy Observations written by Lan Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the availability of high frequency financial data, nonparametric estimation of volatility of an asset return process becomes feasible. A major problem is how to estimate the volatility consistently and efficiently, when the observed asset returns contain error or noise, for example, in the form of microstructure noise. The former (consistency) has been addressed heavily in the recent literature, however, the resulting estimator is not quite efficient. In Zhang, Mykland, Ait-Sahalia (2003), the best estimator converges to the true volatility only at the rate of n wedge{-1/6}. In this paper, we propose an estimator, the Multi-scale Realized Volatility (MSRV), which converges to the true volatility at the rate of n wedge{-1/4}, which is the best attainable. We have shown a central limit theorem for the MSRV estimator, which permits setting intervals for the true integrated volatility on the basis of MSRV.

Book Nonparametric Estimation of Time Series Volatility Model Estimation

Download or read book Nonparametric Estimation of Time Series Volatility Model Estimation written by Teng Tu (Mathematician) and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this article we consider two estimation methods of a non-parametric volatility model with autoregressive error of order two. The first estimation method based on the two- lag difference. To get a better result, we consider the second approach based on the general quadratic forms. For illustration, we provided several data sets from different simulation models to support the procedures of both two methods, and prove that the second approach can make a better estimation.

Book Nonparametric Stochastic Volatility

Download or read book Nonparametric Stochastic Volatility written by Federico M. Bandi and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We provide nonparametric methods for stochastic volatility modeling. Our methods allow for the joint evaluation of return and volatility dynamics with nonlinear drift and diffusion functions, nonlinear leverage effects, and jumps in returns and volatility with possibly state-dependent jump intensities, among other features. In the first stage, we identify spot volatility by virtue of jump- robust nonparametric estimates. Using observed prices and estimated spot volatilities, the second stage extracts the functions and parameters driving price and volatility dynamics from nonparametric estimates of the bivariate process' infinitesimal moments. For these infinitesimal moment estimates, we report an asymptotic theory relying on joint in-fill and long-span arguments which yields consistency and weak convergence under mild assumptions.

Book The Estimation of Stochastic Models in Finance with Volatility and Jump Intensity

Download or read book The Estimation of Stochastic Models in Finance with Volatility and Jump Intensity written by David Edward A. Wilson and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis covers the parametric estimation of models with stochastic volatility, jumps, and stochastic jump intensity, by FFT. The first primary contribution is a parametric minimum relative entropy optimal Q-measure for affine stochastic volatility jump-diffusion (ASVJD). Other attempts in the literature have minimized the relative entropy of Q given P either by nonparametric methods, or by numerical PDEs. These methods are often difficult to implement. We construct the relative entropy of Q given P from the Lebesgue densities under P and Q, respectively, where these can be retrieved by FFT from the closed form log-price characteristic function of any ASVJD model. We proceed by first estimating the fixed parameters of the P-measure by the Approximate Maximum Likelihood (AML) method of Bates (2006), and prove that the integrability conditions required for Fourier inversion are satisfied. Then by using a structure preserving parametric model under the Q-measure, we minimize the relative entropy of Q given P with respect to the model parameters under Q. AML can be used to estimate P within the ASVJD class. Since, AML is much faster than MCMC, our main supporting contributions are to the theory of AML. The second main contribution of this thesis is a non-affine model for time changed jumps with stochastic jump intensity called the Leveraged Jump Intensity (LJI) model. The jump intensity in the LJI model is modeled by the CIR process. Leverage occurs in the LJI model, since the Brownian motion driving the CIR process also appears in the log-price with a negative coefficient. Models with a leverage effect of this type are usually affine, but model the intensity with an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. The conditional characteristic function of the LJI log-price given the intensity is known in closed form. Thus, we price LJI call options by conditional Monte Carlo, using the Carr and Madan (1999) FFT formula for conditional pricing.
