Dependency statistics in quotes (information theory, correlation and other feature selection methods) - page 5

 
faa1947:


The first and extremely vague step is detrending. I have been scolded for posting graphs, but it follows from them that the method used in this thread to get the residual is meaningless, because the statistics of that residual are as bad as the statistics of the original series.



You should read the title of the topic. Are you familiar with the concept of Feature Selection? It is about applying linear and non-linear correlation and other statistical methods to select variables that carry information about the state of zero or future bars.

I try to approach the subject without imposing any subjective limitations, conventions or theories on it

Then go to a kindergarten, where there are no theories, but here people are educated

 
No need to troll the topic. It's just that in your line of work and education you have never heard of Data Mining.
 
And if people like you are educated, I'd advise them to go back to school.

HideYourRichess: And I have a counter question, the applicability of the axiomatics of the term information, which TC operates with respect to the market, has already been established? I.e. to argue about what information is not necessary at all, it is necessary to try on representations of information from TC to a real object. If an identity is found, then the application of all the achievements of TI is justified. If not, it is not.

And what prevents from doing it with respect to return? It can be discretised, it is a random variable. Quite a decent object for the information theory application. What identity search can there be? You're playing a war game, my dear...

faa1947: To me TI is about coding and encryption and the reverse process. Here one tries to derive some actually meaningful information on the basis of formulas, supposedly from TI. For such operations, there are other sciences, which besides analysis also prove that we really see what we see, and not some phantom, which only the author of the topic sees.

And for me in this task TI is primarily a tool for datamining. What to do with this data is another matter. The important thing is that we really see something that is not visible to the naked eye. And what other sciences are you talking about?

The article concludes that there are statistical correlations between the increments of quotes. One of these dependences is well-known - the dependence of the conditional variance of the increments (d[t]) on the value of the previous increments (r[t-1], r[t-2], ...) and the variances (d[t-1], ... ).

The reason for finding statistical dependence was most likely the volatility.

Looks like GARCH(p, q). What orders of the model can we talk about?

And how do you see volatility there, if it was only about returns?

By the way, the book on semi-invariants that you advised me may be quite useful for establishing the order of dependence.

 
Mathemat, there are many other volatility models in addition to a bunch of arch modifications. For garch the most commonly used order is 1;1, but don't expect good results from such a model
 
(1,1) is definitely ridiculous. Especially when you consider that the dependencies were found at lags of at least hundreds (though this is for average mutual information).
 
No offence to the active participants in the topic. It reminds me of the joke about the plane with all the swimming pools, gyms and stuff. "And now with all this stuff we are going to try to take off". The question is not idle, what is the application aspect? That is, at what point is the transition from theory to practice planned?

Slides, slides... ) This is also from an anecdote.
