Characteristic time scales of tick quotes on foreign currency markets: an empirical study and agent-based model

نویسنده

  • Aki-Hiro Sato
چکیده

Power spectrum densities for the number of tick quotes per minute (market activity) on three currency markets (USD/JPY, EUR/USD, and JPY/EUR) for periods from January 1999 to December 2000 are analyzed. We find some peaks on the power spectrum densities at a few minutes. We develop the double-threshold agent model and confirm that stochastic resonance occurs for the market activity of this model. We propose a hypothesis that the periodicities found on the power spectrum densities can be observed due to stochastic resonance. tick quotes, foreign currency market, power spectrum density, double-threshold agent model, stochastic resonance PACS 89.65.Gh, 87.15.Ya, 02.50.-r

Se p 20 05 A characteristic time scale of tick quotes on foreign currency markets

This study investigates that a characteristic time scale on an exchange rate market (USD/JPY) is examined for the period of 1998 to 2000. Calculating power spectrum densities for the number of tick quotes per minute and averaging them over the year yield that the mean power spectrum density has a peak at high frequencies. Consequently it means that there exist the characteristic scales which de...

Frequency analysis of tick quotes on the foreign exchange market and agent-based modeling: A spectral distance approach

High-frequency financial data of the foreign exchange market (EUR/CHF, EUR/GBP, EUR/JPY, EUR/NOK, EUR/SEK, EUR/USD, NZD/USD, USD/CAD, USD/CHF, USD/JPY, USD/NOK, and USD/SEK) are analyzed by utilizing the Kullback-Leibler divergence between two normalized spectrograms of the tick frequency and the generalized Jensen-Shannon divergence among them. The temporal structure variations of the similari...

Price Discovery on Foreign Exchange Markets with Differentially Informed Traders

This paper uses Reuters high-frequency exchange rate data to investigate the contributions to the price discovery process by individual banks in the foreign exchange market. We propose multivariate time series models in calendar time as well as in tick time to study the dynamic relations between the quotes of individual banks. We investigate the hypothesis that German banks are price leaders in...
