We demonstrate the application of an algorithmic trading strategy based upon the recently developed dynamic mode decomposition on portfolios of financial data. The method is capable of characterizing complex dynamical systems, in this case financial market dynamics, in an equation-free manner by decomposing the state of the system into low-rank terms whose temporal coefficients in time are known. By extracting key temporal coherent structures (portfolios) in its sampling window, it provides a regression to a best fit linear dynamical system, allowing for a predictive assessment of the market dynamics and informing an investment strategy. The data-driven analytics capitalizes on stock market patterns, either real or perceived, to inform buy/sell/hold investment decisions. Critical to the method is an associated learning algorithm that optimizes the sampling and prediction windows of the algorithm by discovering trading hot-spots. The underlying mathematical structure of the algorithms is rooted in methods from nonlinear dynamical systems and shows that the decomposition is an effective mathematical tool for data-driven discovery of market patterns. 相似文献

This article proposes an empirically tractable way to incorporate intra-day noise into a VWAP trading rule. In volatile markets, news arrives unexpectedly and rapidly. This should influence a trader’s trading decisions. However, the literature has not incorporated such information into an algorithmic trading framework. Subsequently, this paper presents a Dynamic VWAP (DVWAP) framework that allows informed traders to utilize random news; and thus, improve trade-execution. 相似文献

Until recently economists focused on structural models that were constrained by a lack of high-frequency data and theoretical deficiencies. Little academic research has been invested in actually trying to build successful real-time trading models for the high-frequency foreign exchange market, which is characterized by inherent complexity and heterogeneity. The present work opens new directions for inference on market efficiency in an attempt to account for the use of technical analysis by practitioners over many years now. This paper presents a heuristic model that efficiently emulates the dynamic learning of intraday traders. The proposed setup incorporates agent beliefs, preferences and expectations while it integrates the calibration of technical rules by means of adaptive training. The study focuses on EUR/USD which is the most liquid and widely traded currency pair. The data consist of a very large tick-by-tick sample of bid and ask prices covering many trading periods to enhance robustness in the results. The efficiency of a technical trading strategy based on the proposed model is investigated in terms of directional predictability. The heuristic learning system is compared against many non-linear models, a random walk and a buy & hold strategy. Based on statistical testing it is shown that, with the inclusion of transaction costs, the profitability of the new model is consistently superior. These findings provide evidence of technical predictability under incomplete information and can be justified by invoking the existence of heterogeneity caused by many factors affecting market microstructure. Overall, the results suggest that the proposed model can be used to improve upon traditional technical analysis approaches. 相似文献

Motivated by the asset–liability management problems under shortfall risk constraints, we consider in a general discrete-time framework the problem of finding the least expensive portfolio whose shortfalls with respect to a given set of stochastic benchmarks are bounded by a specific shortfall risk measure. We first show how the price of this portfolio may be computed recursively by dynamic programming for different shortfall risk measures, in complete and incomplete markets. We then focus on the specific situation where the shortfall risk constraints are imposed at each period on the next-period shortfalls, and obtain explicit results. Finally, we apply our results to a realistic asset–liability management problem of an energy company, and show how the shortfall risk constraints affect the optimal hedging of liabilities. 相似文献

Abstract An alternative approach to the variance principle of premium determination is explored. The approach rationalises the principle in terms of an economic theory and formalises the notion that loadings in addition to the ‘fair’ premium are related to competition and expenses. 相似文献

This paper examines the impact of liquidity risk on the behavior of a risk-averse multinational firm (MNF) under exchange rate uncertainty in a two-period dynamic setting. The MNF has operations domiciled in the home country and in a foreign country, each of which produces a single homogeneous good to be sold in the home and foreign markets. To hedge the exchange rate risk, the MNF has access to one-period currency futures and option contracts in each period. The MNF is liquidity constrained in that it is obliged to terminate its risk management program in the second period whenever the net loss due to its first-period hedge position exceeds a predetermined threshold level. We show that the MNF optimally sells less (more) and produces more (less) in the foreign (home) country in response to the imposition of the liquidity constraint. We show further that the liquidity constrained MNF optimally uses the currency option contracts in the first period for hedging purposes in general, and opts for a long option position if its utility function is quadratic in particular. 相似文献

We determine the minimum cost of super-replicating a nonnegativecontingent claim when there are convex constraints on portfolioweights. We show that the optimal cost with constraints is equalto the price of a related claim without constraints. The relatedclaim is a dominating claim, that is, a claim whose payoffsare increased in an appropriate way relative to the originalclaim. The results hold for a variety of options, includingsome path-dependent options. Constraints on the gamma of thereplicating portfolio, constraints on the portfolio amounts,and constraints on the number of shares are also considered. 相似文献

This paper analyzes, in a simple two-region model, the undertaking of noxious facilities when the central government has limited
prerogatives. The central government decides whether to construct a noxious facility in one of the regions, and how to finance
it. We study this problem under both full and asymmetric information on the damage caused by the noxious facility in the host
region. We particularly emphasize the role of the central government prerogatives on the optimal allocations. We finally discuss
our results with respect to the previous literature on NIMBY and argue that taking into account these limited prerogatives
is indeed important. 相似文献

An owner delegates investment decisions to a better informed manager whose time preferences are unknown to the owner. Due
to exogenous capital constraints, not all profitable projects can be undertaken, and therefore the owner wants the manager
to select the NPV-maximizing set of projects. We show that the relative benefit cost allocation scheme proposed by prior literature
does not solve this problem. Adopting the same information structure as in Rogerson (J Polit Econ 105, 770–795, 1997) and
Reichelstein (Rev Account Stud 2, 157–180, 1997), we demonstrate how to obtain robust goal congruence using residual income.
The resulting revenue recognition and cost allocation rules lead to a performance measure reflecting the expected NPV-ranking
of projects in each and every period.

We define low-latency activity as strategies that respond to market events in the millisecond environment, the hallmark of proprietary trading by high-frequency traders though it could include other algorithmic activity as well. We propose a new measure of low-latency activity to investigate the impact of high-frequency trading on the market environment. Our measure is highly correlated with NASDAQ-constructed estimates of high-frequency trading, but it can be computed from widely-available message data. We use this measure to study how low-latency activity affects market quality both during normal market conditions and during a period of declining prices and heightened economic uncertainty. Our analysis suggests that increased low-latency activity improves traditional market quality measures—decreasing spreads, increasing displayed depth in the limit order book, and lowering short-term volatility. Our findings suggest that given the current market structure for U.S. equities, increased low-latency activity need not work to the detriment of long-term investors. 相似文献

From the market microstructure perspective, technical analysis can be profitable when informed traders make systematic mistakes or when uninformed traders have predictable impacts on price. However, chartists face a considerable degree of trading uncertainty because technical indicators such as moving averages are essentially imperfect filters with a nonzero phase shift. Consequently, technical trading may result in erroneous trading recommendations and substantial losses. This paper presents an uncertainty reduction approach based on fuzzy logic that addresses two problems related to the uncertainty embedded in technical trading strategies: market timing and order size. The results of our high-frequency exercises show that ‘fuzzy technical indicators’ dominate standard moving average technical indicators and filter rules for the Euro-US dollar (EUR-USD) exchange rates, especially on high-volatility days. 相似文献

If transitory profitable trading opportunities exist, transaction filters mitigate trading costs. We use a dynamic programming framework to design an optimal filter that maximizes after-cost expected returns. The filter size depends crucially on the degree of persistence of trading opportunities, transaction cost, and standard deviation of shocks. For daily dollar–yen exchange trading, the optimal filter can be economically significantly different from a naïve filter equal to the transaction cost. The candidate trading strategies generate positive returns that disappear after transaction costs. However, when the optimal filter is used, returns after costs remain positive and higher than for naïve filters. 相似文献

‘Pairs Trading’ is an investment strategy used by many Hedge Funds. Consider two similar stocks which trade at some spread. If the spread widens short the high stock and buy the low stock. As the spread narrows again to some equilibrium value, a profit results. This paper provides an analytical framework for such an investment strategy. We propose a mean-reverting Gaussian Markov chain model for the spread which is observed in Gaussian noise. Predictions from the calibrated model are then compared with subsequent observations of the spread to determine appropriate investment decisions. The methodology has potential applications to generating wealth from any quantities in financial markets which are observed to be out of equilibrium. 相似文献

The optimal liquidation problem with transaction costs, which includes a positive fixed cost, and market impact costs, is studied in this paper as a constrained stochastic optimal control problem. We assume that trading is instantaneous and the dynamics of the stock to be liquidated follows a geometric Brownian motion. The solution to the impulse control problem is computed at each time step by solving a linear partial differential equation and a maximization problem. In contrast to results obtained from the static formulation of Almgren and Chriss [J. Risk, 2000, 3, 5–39], when risk is not considered, the optimal liquidation strategy from our stochastic control formulation depends on temporary market impact cost and permanent market impact cost parameters. In addition, our computational results indicate the following properties of the optimal execution strategy from the stochastic control formulation. Due to the existence of a no-transaction region, it may not be optimal for some individuals to sell their assets on some trading dates. As the value of the permanent market impact parameter increases, the expected optimal amount liquidated at the terminal time increases. As the value of the quadratic temporary impact cost parameter increases, the expected optimal amount liquidated at trading times tends to be uniform, and the no-transaction region shrinks. In the presence of quadratic temporary market impact costs, in contrast to optimal strategies that result from fixed and/or proportional transaction costs alone, portfolios in the selling region are neither re-balanced into the no-transaction region nor into the sell and no-transaction interface. 相似文献

Dynamic Asset Allocation under Inflation 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
We develop a simple framework for analyzing a finite-horizon investor's asset allocation problem under inflation when only nominal assets are available. The investor's optimal investment strategy and indirect utility are given in simple closed form. Hedge demands depend on the investor's horizon and risk aversion and on the maturities of the bonds included in the portfolio. When short positions are precluded, the optimal strategy consists of investments in cash, equity, and a single nominal bond with optimally chosen maturity. Both the optimal stock–bond mix and the optimal bond maturity depend on the investor's horizon and risk aversion. 相似文献
