Continuous-Time Skewed Multifractal Processes as a Model for Financial Returns
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the construction of a continuous time stochastic process which has moments that satisfy an exact scaling relation, including odd order moments. It is based on a natural extension of the MRW construction described in [3]. This allows us to propose a continuous time model for the price of a financial asset that reflects most major stylized facts observed on real data, including asymmetry and multifractal scaling.

A Multifractal Model of Asset Returns
This paper presents the multifractal model of asset returns (“MMAR”), based upon the pioneering research into multifractal measures by Mandelbrot (1972, 1974). The multifractal model incorporates two elements of Mandelbrot’s past research that are now well-known in finance. First, the MMAR contains long-tails, as in Mandelbrot (1963), which focused on Lévy-stable distributions. In contrast to M...
متن کاملContinuous cascade models for asset returns
In this paper, we make a short overview of continuous cascade models recently introduced to model asset return fluctuations. We show that these models account in a very parcimonious manner for most of “stylized facts” of financial time series. We review in more details the simplest of such models namely the log-normal Multifractal Random Walk. It can simply be considered as a stochastic volatil...
متن کاملThe components of empirical multifractality in financial returns
We perform a systematic investigation on the components of the empirical multifractality of financial returns using the daily data of Dow Jones Industrial Average from 26 May 1896 to 27 April 2007 as an example. The temporal structure and fat-tailed distribution of the returns are considered as possible influence factors. The multifractal spectrum of the original return series is compared with ...

There is more and more empirical evidence that multifractality constitutes another and perhaps the most significant financial stylized fact. A realistic model of the financial dynamics should therefore incorporate this effect. The most promising in this respect is the Multifractal Model of Asset Returns (MMAR) introduced by Mandelbrot et al. [1] in which mul-tifractality is carried by time defo...
متن کاملOn The Behavior of Malaysian Equities: Fractal Analysis Approach
Fractal analyzing of continuous processes have recently emerged in literatures in various domains. Existence of long memory in many processes including financial time series have been evidenced via different methodologies in many literatures in past decade, which has inspired many recent literatures on quantifying the fractional Brownian motion (fBm) characteristics of financial time series. Th...
