A Singular Stochastic Control Approach for Optimal Pairs Trading with Proportional Transaction Costs

چکیده
Optimal trading strategies for pairs have been studied by models that try to find either optimal shares of stocks assuming no transaction costs or timing fixed numbers with costs. To determine optimally both trade times and number in a process, we use singular stochastic control approach study an problem proportional Assuming cointegrated relationship pair stock log-prices, consider portfolio optimization involves dynamic We show the value function is unique viscosity solution nonlinear quasi-variational inequality, which equivalent free boundary function. then develop discrete time programming algorithm compute regions, convergence discretization scheme. illustrate our numerical examples discuss impact different parameters on regions. out-of-sample performance empirical consists six U.S. selected from industry sectors, demonstrate efficiency strategy.

Trading Regions Under Proportional Transaction Costs
In the Black-Scholes model optimal trading for maximizing expected power utility under proportional transaction costs can be described by three intervals B, NT , S: If the proportion of wealth invested in the stocks lies in B, NT , S, then buying, not trading and selling, respectively, are optimal. For a finite time horizon, the boundaries of these trading regions depend on time and on the term...
متن کاملPortfolio Optimization with Discrete Proportional Transaction Costs under Stochastic Volatility
This paper is devoted to evaluating the optimal self-financing portfolio and the optimal trading frequency on a risky and risk-free asset to maximize the expected future utility of the terminal wealth in a stochastic volatility setting, when proportional transaction costs are incurred at each discrete trading time. The HARA utility function is used, allowing a simple approximation of the optimi...
متن کاملFutures trading with transaction costs
A model for optimal consumption and investment is posed whose solution is provided by the classical Merton analysis when there is zero transaction cost. A probabilistic argument is developed to identify the loss in value when a proportional transaction cost is introduced. There are two sources of this loss. The first is a loss due to “displacement” that arises because one cannot maintain the op...
متن کاملControl Bands for Tracking Optimal Portfolios in the Presence of Constant and Proportional Transaction Costs
The vast majority of research related to optimal asset allocation strategies in the presence of transaction costs, requires formulation of highly sophisticated numerical schemes for the estimation of no-transaction bands; moreover, the optimization objectives examined are far less compared to the number of works that assume frictionless trading. In this article, we point out that an investor ma...
متن کاملMultivariate utility maximization with proportional transaction costs
We present an optimal investment theorem for a currency exchange model with random and possibly discontinuous proportional transaction costs. The investor’s preferences are represented by a multivariate utility function, allowing for simultaneous consumption of any prescribed selection of the currencies at a given terminal date. We prove the existence of an optimal portfolio process under the a...
