Abstract: Filter trading rule is a technical trading strategy that was very popular amongst practitioners and has been used a lot for testing market efficiency. It has been shown that the filter trading rule is mathematically equivalent to the CUSUM quality control test as both are based on change point detection theory via sequential probability ratio tests (SPRT). To study the operating characteristics of the filter trading rule, many results from the CUSUM literature can be applied. However, some interesting operating characteristics of a technical trading rule such as expected profit per day may not be relevant when put into a quality control setting. In this thesis, we derive formulae for computing these operating characteristics. It is well known that just like any other technical trading rule, the filter trading rule is not effective when the asset price follows a random walk. In this thesis, we studied the statistical properties and effectiveness of the filter trading rule under different asset price models including Markov regime switching model and conditional heteroskedasticity model. The properties of the filter trading rule considered include the waiting time for the first signal in filter trading, the duration of a long or a short cycle in filter trading, the profit return derived from a long or a short cycle and the unit time return of long term filter trading. Built on the above results, we consider the problem of optimizing the performance of a filter trading rule by choosing a suitable filter size. For filter trading rule under the conditional heteroskedasticity model, the change point detection methods lead to a new technical trading rule called generalized filter trading rule in this thesis. The generalized filter trading rule is shown to have a better performance over the ordinary filter trading rule when it is applied to the trading of the Hang Seng Index futures contract. Finally, we have applied the filter trading rule to intraday trading on high frequency Hang Seng Index futures data.

Book Algorithmic Trading and Quantitative Strategies

Download or read book Algorithmic Trading and Quantitative Strategies written by Raja Velu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-08-12 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Algorithmic Trading and Quantitative Strategies provides an in-depth overview of this growing field with a unique mix of quantitative rigor and practitioner’s hands-on experience. The focus on empirical modeling and practical know-how makes this book a valuable resource for students and professionals. The book starts with the often overlooked context of why and how we trade via a detailed introduction to market structure and quantitative microstructure models. The authors then present the necessary quantitative toolbox including more advanced machine learning models needed to successfully operate in the field. They next discuss the subject of quantitative trading, alpha generation, active portfolio management and more recent topics like news and sentiment analytics. The last main topic of execution algorithms is covered in detail with emphasis on the state of the field and critical topics including the elusive concept of market impact. The book concludes with a discussion on the technology infrastructure necessary to implement algorithmic strategies in large-scale production settings. A git-hub repository includes data-sets and explanatory/exercise Jupyter notebooks. The exercises involve adding the correct code to solve the particular analysis/problem.

Book Statistical Surveillance

Download or read book Statistical Surveillance written by David Bock and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a Ph.D. dissertation. Statistical surveillance is used to repeatedly evaluate the amount of information contained in observations which are achieved continuously. This makes it possible to quickly and safely detect changes in the way economic and financial time series evolve through time. Thus, the optimal time for decisions can be determined. The thesis treats systems for early warnings of turns in economic processes. In papers I & II it is demonstrated how such systems can be used to predict the turning points of the general business cycle, by detecting turns in leading indicators. In papers III & IV some strategies for timely transactions in the financial market are analyzed by means of the theory of statistical surveillance.

Book Computational Intelligence in Economics and Finance

Download or read book Computational Intelligence in Economics and Finance written by Paul P. Wang and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the ability to handle specific characteristics of economics and finance forecasting problems like e.g. non-linear relationships, behavioral changes, or knowledge-based domain segmentation, we have recently witnessed a phenomenal growth of the application of computational intelligence methodologies in this field. In this volume, Chen and Wang collected not just works on traditional computational intelligence approaches like fuzzy logic, neural networks, and genetic algorithms, but also examples for more recent technologies like e.g. rough sets, support vector machines, wavelets, or ant algorithms. After an introductory chapter with a structural description of all the methodologies, the subsequent parts describe novel applications of these to typical economics and finance problems like business forecasting, currency crisis discrimination, foreign exchange markets, or stock markets behavior.

This book was released on 2002-05-27 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a decade's development, evolutionary computation (EC) proves to be a powerful tool kit for economic analysis. While the demand for this equipment is increasing, there is no volume exclusively written for economists. This volume for the first time helps economists to get a quick grasp on how EC may support their research. A comprehensive coverage of the subject is given, that includes the following three areas: game theory, agent-based economic modelling and financial engineering. Twenty leading scholars from each of these areas contribute a chapter to the volume.
