Continuous-time trading and the emergence of randomness
نویسنده
چکیده
A new definition of events of game-theoretic probability zero in continuous time is proposed and used to prove results suggesting that trading in financial markets results in the emergence of properties usually associated with randomness. This paper concentrates on “qualitative” results, stated in terms of order (or order topology) rather than in terms of the precise values taken by a price process. No stochastic assumptions are made, and the only assumption is that the price process is continuous.

متن کاملContinuous-time trading and emergence of randomness, II
This paper continues investigation of randomness-type properties emerging in idealized financial markets with continuous price processes. It is shown that the strong variation exponent of non-constant price processes has to be 2, as in the case of Brownian motion.
متن کاملContinuous-time trading and emergence of volatility
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.
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, ...

Uncertainty inherent in the financial market was usually consid- ered to be random. However, randomness is only one special type of uncer- tainty and appropriate when describing objective information. For describing subjective information it is preferred to assume that uncertainty is fuzzy. This paper defines the expected payoof trading strategies in a fuzzy financial market within the framewor...
