Continuous-time trading and emergence of volatility
نویسنده
چکیده
This note continues investigation of randomness-type properties emerging in idealized financial markets with continuous price processes. It is shown, without making any probabilistic assumptions, that the strong variation exponent of non-constant price processes has to be 2, as in the case of continuous martingales.

Studying the Monthly Effect on the Market Reactions Using Time-Space -Frequency Analysis (Case Study: Tehran Stock Exchange)
Anomaly is an incident or event that cannot be explained by the dominant theories. Anomalies are situated in confronting with the efficient market theory, so that it provides conditions for stock trading strategies with additional returns in case of existing predetermined returns. Therefore, in this study, the anomaly due to monthly effects on the stock volume trading and the Tehran Stock Excha...
متن کاملContinuous-time Trading and the Emergence of Volatility
This note is part of the recent revival of interest in game-theoretic probability (see, e.g., [7, 8, 4, 2, 3]). It concentrates on the study of the“ √ dt effect”, the fact that a typical change in the value of a non-degenerate diffusion process over short time period dt has order of magnitude √ dt. Within the “standard” (not using non-standard analysis) framework of game-theoretic probability, ...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Volatility and Trading Volume in the Chinese Stock Market: A Volatility Decomposition Perspective
We use heterogeneous autoregressive (HAR) model with high-frequency data of Hu-Shen 300 index to investigate the volatility-volume relationship via the volatility decomposition approach. Although we find that the continuous component of daily volatility is positively correlated with trading volume, the jump component reveals a significant and robust negative relation with volume. This result su...
متن کاملOptimal Derivative Strategies with Discrete Rebalancing
Optimal asset allocation strategies are often derived in continuous time models, but have to be implemented in discrete time. It has been shown that in models with stochastic volatility or jumps, an investor who just uses the continuous time strategy in discrete time has to trade at least daily to profit from having access to derivatives. In this paper, we determine the optimal investment strat...
متن کاملPredatory Trading: a Game on Volatility and Liquidity
We propose and analyze a continuous time stochastic differential game as a mathematical model for the liquidation of a financial position by a distressed trader facing a predator trading with looser time constraints. Temporary and permanent price impacts are used to model liquidity effects. We construct Nash equilibria by solving a system of coupled degenerate HJB equations and analyze the resu...
