A Multifractal Detrended Fluctuation Description of Iranian Rial-US Dollar Exchange Rate
نویسنده
چکیده
The miltifractal properties and scaling behaviour of the exchange rate variations of the Iranian rial against the US dollar from a daily perspective is numerically investigated. For this purpose the multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA) is used. Through multifractal analysis, the scaling exponents, generalized Hurst exponents, generalized fractal dimensions and singularity spectrum are derived. Moreover, contribution of two major sources of multifractality, that is, fat-tailed probability distributions and nonlinear temporal correlations are studied.

Assessing the Exchange Rate Fluctuation on Tehrans Stock Market Price: A GARCH Application
This paper empirically investigates the exchange rate effects of Iranian Rial against Dollar (Rial vs.US) on stock prices in Iran. The sample period for the study has been taken from March 20, 2004 to March 20, 2010 using daily nominal exchange rate of Rial /us and daily closing values of Tehran Stock Exchange. Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity (GARCH) model has been use...
متن کاملPerformance of multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis on short time series.
The performance of the multifractal detrended analysis on short time series is evaluated for synthetic samples of several mono- and multifractal models. The reconstruction of the generalized Hurst exponents is used to determine the range of applicability of the method and the precision of its results as a function of the decreasing length of the series. As an application the series of the daily...
متن کاملHistory of the Rial and Foreign Exchange Policy in Iran
Through the history and since 1933, the Iranian rial has declined from 11.2 rials per dollar to almost 8600 rials per dollar today in the parallel or black market. At the same time the official rate has been kept at artificial level most of the time, not consistent with other macro conditions of the country. Historically, however, the Central bank has adjusted the official rate and brought it i...
متن کاملAn Analysis of Fractal Properties in the Iranian Exchange Rate Behavior
The behavior of exchange rate in various exchange markets is not seemingly predictable, while there are different forecasting methods to do so. One of these methods is to use fractals to identify exchange rate behavior. This paper has made attempts to explore the properties of fractals in Iranâs exchange market in order to it can predict and analyze the trend of exchange rate. Accordingly, th...

On Jan. 1, 1999 the European Union introduced a common currency Euro (EUR), to become the legal currency in all eleven countries which form the EUR. In order to test the EUR behavior and understand various features, the EUR exchange rate is artificially extrapolated back to 1993 by a linear superposition of the exchange rates of the 11 currencies composing EUR with respect to several currencies...
