Testing for jumps in noisy high frequency data

چکیده
This paper proposes a robustification of the test statistic of Aït-Sahalia and Jacod (2009b) for the presence of market microstructure noise in high frequency data, based on the pre-averaging method of Jacod et al. (2010). We show that the robustified statistic restores the test’s discriminating power between jumps and no jumps despite the presence of market microstructure noise in the data. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Time-Varying Modeling of Systematic Risk: using High-Frequency Characterization of Tehran Stock Exchange
We decompose time-varying beta for stock into beta for continuous systematic risk and beta for discontinuous systematic risk. Brownian motion is assumed as nature of price movements in our modeling. Our empirical research is based on high-frequency data for stocks from Tehran Stock Exchange. Our market portfolio experiences 136 days out of 243 trading days with jumps which is a considerable rat...
متن کاملOutput-only Modal Analysis of a Beam Via Frequency Domain Decomposition Method Using Noisy Data
The output data from a structure is the building block for output-only modal analysis. The structure response in the output data, however, is usually contaminated with noise. Naturally, the success of output-only methods in determining the modal parameters of a structure depends on noise level. In this paper, the possibility and accuracy of identifying the modal parameters of a simply supported...
متن کاملRealized Volatility in Noisy Prices: a MSRV approach
Volatility is the primary measure of risk in modern finance and volatility estimation and inference has attracted substantial attention in the recent financial econometric literature, especially in high-frequency analyses. High-frequency prices carry a significant amount of noise. Therefore, there are two volatility components embedded in the returns constructed using high frequency prices: the...
متن کاملSystem Identification Based on Frequency Response Noisy Data
In this paper, a new algorithm for system identification based on frequency response is presented. In this method, given a set of magnitudes and phases of the system transfer function in a set of discrete frequencies, a system of linear equations is derived which has a unique and exact solution for the coefficients of the transfer function provided that the data is noise-free and the degrees of...

VOLATILITY AND JUMPS IN HIGH FREQUENCY FINANCIAL DATA: ESTIMATION AND TESTING Nan Zhou, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 It has been widely accepted in financial econometrics that both the microstructure noise and jumps are significantly involved in high frequency data. In some empirical situations, the noise structure is more complex than independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) assu...
