Statistics as a way of looking into the future!

New comment
 

Decided to do a bit of statistical work. I bought a book and built a multiplicative model :) using Excel. I have built regression, defined seasonal component (1 season - 24 hours, one hour archive of quotes was used) and built prediction function.

Regression equation has the following form: Y=b0+b1*t+b2*t^2+b3*X1+b4*X2, где

Yi=CLOSEi-1(gold), t-time, X1=CLOSEi-1(gold)/CLOSEi-1(usd), X2=CLOSEi-1(gold), b0...b4- regression coefficients. (I hope it's clear)

So I got the following picture

Personally I'm fascinated by it, when you "see" what will happen. I want to write an indicator.

Who has an opinion on the statistics?

What is your opinion about it?

What is Close[i-1]USD ?

is the previous close for the dollar index

 
Simple autoregressive (AR) models like the one above are good for modelling stationary processes. In fact, as far as price forecasting is concerned, it says it all. There are more advanced models that work well with some types of non-stationarity, such as GARCH, EGARCH. The latter are often used to predict volatility.

Can I have a link to the description of these models?
 
Sure :)
 
Funny link)))) and you can't fault it, it works...

There are three kinds of lies:

1. Concealed lies.

2. outright lies.

3. Statistics

+1!

Well, actually, even under capitalism they shuffle them around so badly. First, the fundamental is announced, which leads to a jump in exchange rates, and then, after a month or a quarter, it is revised. It turns out to be another means of manipulation.
