Implied and Realized Volatility: Empirical Model Selection
The paper studies the nonparametric connection between realized and implied volatilities. No-arbitrage identities and comparison inequalities are found. We formulate the multi-factor trading system on the volatility scale. To empirically determine the number of factors, we develop a high frequency analysis for sequential F-testing. We also design a cross validated estimate of quadratic variation.
متن کاملThe Relation between Implied and Realized Volatility of S&P 500 Index
This paper studies the relation between implied and realized volatility by using daily S&P 500 index option price over the period between January 1995 and December 1999. In particular, we want to test the how different measurement errors affect the stability of this relationship. Two sources of measurement errors are considered. The first one is the measurement error in realized volatility. Fou...
متن کاملMeasuring High-Frequency Causality Between Returns, Realized Volatility and Implied Volatility
In this paper, we provide evidence on two alternative mechanisms of interaction between returns and volatilities: the leverage effect and the volatility feedback effect. We stress the importance of distinguishing between realized volatility and implied volatility, and find that implied volatilities are essential for assessing the volatility feedback effect. The leverage hypothesis asserts that ...
متن کاملCan the implied volatility surface move by parallel shifts?
This note explores the analogy between the dynamics of the interest rate term structure and the implied volatility surface of a stock. In particular, we prove an impossibility theorem conjectured by Steve Ross.

متن کاملThe Role of Implied Volatility in Forecasting Future Realized Volatility and Jumps in Foreign Exchange, Stock, and Bond Markets
We study the forecasting of future realized volatility in the foreign exchange, stock, and bond markets from variables in the information set, including implied volatility backed out from option prices. Realized volatility is separated into its continuous and jump components, and the heterogeneous autoregressive (HAR) model is applied with implied volatility as an additional forecasting variabl...
