Trends in Stock Prices and Range to Standard Deviation Ratio
نویسنده
چکیده
Hurst exponent (H) measured from R/S ratio, is being used as a measure to find predictability of a time series. The larger the H value, the stronger is the trending trait in the time series. In this paper, we estimated R/S ratio of several stock indexes of Indian market for 10 years. Though the overall Hurst exponent values for the selected series were close to 0.5, the value varied widely on period-to-period basis. The analysis of R/S ratio on a smaller window size of 30 trading day revealed a positive relationship between R/S ratio and performance of a moving average based trading rule.

Influence of Range to Standard Deviation Ratio on Results of a Trading Rule
This paper examines relationship between Range to Standard deviation ratio (R/S ratio) and the profitability of a trading rule using stock prices of Indian market. The R/S ratios are expected to detect long-term dependencies in a time series. If dependencies are found, the dependency can be used to develop strategies for profitable trades. The larger the R/S ratio, the stronger is the trend and...
متن کاملOutperformance Testing of a Dynamic Assets Portfolio Selection Supplemented with a Continuous Paths Levy Process
This study aims at getting a better performance for optimal stock portfolios by modeling stocks prices dynamics through a continuous paths Levy process. To this end, the share prices are simulated using a multi-dimensional geometric Brownian motion model. Then, we use the results to form the optimal portfolio by maximizing the Sharpe ratio and comparing the findings with the outputs of the conv...
متن کاملMeasure the Fluctuation of the Stock Index According to Approximate Entropy and Standard Deviation
Abstract. The concept of entropy has been widely extended to other fields, including information theory and economic research. The economic financial sector of any country is the supplier of financial resources and real economic activities, which are divided into two parts: the money market and the capital market. In this paper, two criteria, approximate entropy and standard deviation have been...
