Volatility or microstructure noise?
The notion of realized volatility as a model-free measurement of the quadratic variation of the underlying log price process loses its asymptotic validity in the presence of market microstructure noise. Should microstructure contaminations be present, the summing of an increasing number of squared return data (as in the definition of the realized volatility estimator) simply entails increasing ...
متن کاملLiquidity-Based Estimation of Stochastic Volatility under Microstructure Noise
Recent literature on realized volatility suggests that the observed price process of an asset may be decomposed into two parts: the genuine (unobservable) price process and microstructure noise. In this article we present a methodology to estimate stochastic volatility by separating these components. Depending on market liquidity, the source of a move in the transaction price of an asset may be...
متن کاملLiquidity-Based Estimation of Spot Volatility Under Microstructure Noise
Recent literature on realized volatility suggests that the observed price process of an asset may be decomposed into two parts: the unobservable, efficient price process and microstructure noise. In this article we present a methodology to sequentially estimate spot volatility from noisy data by separating these components. We use different liquidity-based measures, traded volume and quoted spr...
متن کاملSeparating microstructure noise from volatility∗
There are two variance components embedded in the returns constructed using high-frequency asset prices: the time-varying variance of the unobservable efficient returns that would prevail in a frictionless economy and the variance of the equally unobservable microstructure noise. Using sample moments of high-frequency return data recorded at different frequencies, we provide a simple and robust...
متن کاملMicrostructure noise, realized volatility, and optimal sampling∗
Recorded prices are known to diverge from their “efficient” values due to the presence of market microstructure contaminations. The microstructure noise creates a dichotomy in the model-free estimation of integrated volatility. While it is theoretically necessary to sum squared returns that are computed over very small intervals to better indentify the underlying volatility over a period, the s...
