We construct multi-currency models with stochastic volatility and correlated stochastic interest rates with a full matrix of correlations. We first deal with a foreign exchange (FX) model of Heston-type, in which the domestic and foreign interest rates are generated by the short-rate process of Hull-White [HW96]. We then extend the framework by modeling the interest rate by a stochastic volatil...

Many systems studied in the biological, physical, and social sciences are composed of multiple interacting components. Often the number of components and interactions is so large that attaining an understanding of the system necessitates some form of simplification. A common representation that captures the key connection patterns is a network in which the nodes correspond to system components ...

the successful key of trading in the forex market is the selection of correct exchange in proper time based on an exact prediction of future exchange rate. foreign exchange rates are affected by many correlated economic, political and even psychological factors. therefore, in order to achieve a profitable trade these factors should be considered. the application of intelligent techniques for fo...

We investigate intra-day foreign exchange (FX) time series using the inverse statistic analysis developed in [1,2]. Specifically, we study the time-averaged distributions of waiting times needed to obtain a certain increase (decrease) ρ in the price of an investment. The analysis is performed for the Deutsch Mark (DM) against the $US for the full year of 1998, but similar results are obtained f...

GROWING BODY OF theoretical literature, known as the study of securities market microstructure, deals with the behavior of participants in securities markets and with the effects of information and institutional rules on the economic performance of those markets. These institutional factors may arise from technology, tradition or regulation. Microstructure and its impact are important, because ...

This study aims to study the effect of elimination of government intervention and liberalizationin meat market in rural area in Iran on consumer welfare with time series data for 1981-2007.An alternative partial equilibrium model was developed to examine the welfare effect of meattrade liberalization. Result show that on producer side, government budget (subsidy onproduction), foreign exchange ...

We develop a novel financial market model in which the stock markets of two countries are linked via and with the foreign exchange market. To be precise, there are domestic and foreign speculators in each of the two stock markets which rely either on linear technical or linear fundamental trading strategies to determine their orders. Since foreign stock market speculators require foreign curren...

This paper presents a version of the proportionally calibrated almost ideal demand system (PCAIDS) model, useful for merger simulations, which can be econometrically estimated using price data for two firms in a market. The model is then applied to a database of the Argentine gasoline market, and its results are compared to the ones obtained with other alternative specifications. JEL Classifica...

Failure to timely identify the occurrence of various shocks in the foreign exchange market due to the close relationship with the monetary, macroeconomic, and financial uncertainty can lead to crises and imbalances. In this paper, the effect of exchange rate and investor confidence on monetary and economic uncertainty in Iran is investigated, specifying a Multivariate GARCH model and the Grange...
