The continuous time random walk formalism in financial markets

Abstract: We adapt continuous time random walk (CTRW) formalism to describe asset price evolution and discuss some of the problems that can be treated using this approach. We basically focus on two aspects: (i) the derivation of the price distribution from high-frequency data, and (ii) the inverse problem, obtaining information on the market microstructure as reflected by high-frequency data knowing only the daily volatility. We apply the formalism to financial data to show that the CTRW offers alternative tools to deal… Show more

“…In particular the crossover between more and less anomalous behavior has been observed in the volatility of some share prices [28]. Here, we compare the numerical results of the finite difference schemes (13), (14) with those of the numerical scheme in [20].…”

“…Let us begin with a short review of the theory of CTRWs; for a more detailed explanation see, e.g., [25]. The CTRW X a (t) is a stochastic process that, at random instants of time, 0 = t 0 t 1 · · · t n−1 t n , suffers random changes or jumps of magnitude J n ,…”

“…Recently, its application to description of financial time-series was proposed [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]. In the traditional CTRW, times duration and jumps are independent random variables and in the most of cases their distribution are static.…”
