There has been substantial research effort aimed to forecast futures price return volatilities of financial assets. A significant part of the literature shows that volatility forecast accuracy is not easy to estimate regardless of the forecasting model applied. This paper examines the volatility accuracy of several volatility forecast models for the case of the Mexican peso-USD exchange rate futures returns. The models applied here are a univariate GARCH, a multivariate ARCH (the BEKK model), two option implied volatility models and a composite forecast model. The composite model includes time-series (historical) and option implied volatility forecasts. Different to other works in the literature, in this paper there is a more rigorous analysis of the option implied volatilities calculations. The results show that the option implied models are superior to the historical models in terms of accuracy and that the composite forecast model was the most accurate one (compared to the alternative models) having the lowest mean-squared-errors. However, the results should be taken with caution given that the coefficient of determination in the regressions was relatively low. According to these findings it is recommended to use a composite forecast model if both types of data are available i.e. the time-series (historical) and the option implied.

In order to improve the predictive accuracy of SVM on financial time series, we propose a WD-GA-SVR model in this paper. First, do wavelet denoising (WD) to financial time series to eliminate the interference noise in the original sequence; and use the genetical gorithm (GA) for parameter optimization to make up selecte defects of the parameters c and g; use the obtained optimal parameter values to train to formate the optimal SVM learning machine. The forecast of the order time delay data of CSI 300 index and the comparative analysis of the SVR model, GA-SVR and the WD-GA-SVR model predictions indicate that the WD-GA-SVR model significantly improve the robustness of the prediction model and forecast accuracy, can provide a reference for policy makers and investors.

В экономическом прогнозировании коротких временных рядов часто применяется модель Брауна нулевого порядка. К одной из проблем использования этой модели на первых шагах прогнозирования относится оценка начального значения экспоненциальной средней. Как правило, в качестве такой оценки используется простое среднее арифметическое значение первых уровней ряда, которое является неустойчивой статистической оценкой. Поэтому в данном исследовании предложено для оценки начального значения экспоненциальной средней использовать робастные М-оценки Тьюки, Хампеля, Хьюбера и Эндрюса. Цель исследования заключается в определении целесообразности применения М-оценок для определения начального значения экспоненциальной средней в модели Брауна при прогнозировании коротких временных рядов экономических показателей. В результате проведенного экспериментального исследования установлено: а) к наиболее значимым факторам, влияющим на точность прогноза с использованием модели Брауна, относятся вид временного ряда, значение постоянной сглаживания, отбраковка аномальных уровней и вид весов; б) вид оценки начального значения экспоненциальной средней и число итераций при вычислении М-оценки являются менее значимыми факторами (в связи с этим обоснована целесообразность применения одношаговых М-оценок); в) на начальных шагах прогнозирования при ограниченном количестве уровней временного ряда, когда невозможно достоверно определить вид ряда и когда отсутствуют основания для отбраковки аномальных уровней, предпочтительнее использовать модель Брауна с весами Вейда и определять начальное значение экспоненциальной средней на основе одношаговых робастных М-оценок (в остальных случаях целесообразно применять простое среднее арифметическое значение). In economic forecasting of short-term time series Braun’s model of zero level is often applied. One of issues of usage of this model from the very beginning of forecasting is estimation of start value of exponential average. As usual, simple arithmetic mean of first levels of series, used as such estimate, is volatile statistical estimate. That’s why in this investigation it’s suggested to use Tukey’s, Hampel’s, Huber’s and Andrews’ robust M-estimates for estimation of start value of exponential average. Purpose of research is definition of reasonability of M-estimates application to define start value of exponential average in Braun’s model during forecasting of short-term time series of economic indicators. The results of conducted experimental research are as follows: a) the most important factors, that have significant impact on forecast accuracy with usage of Braun’s model, are type of time series, value of smoothing constant, removal of abnormal levels and type of weights; b) type of estimate of start value of exponential average and quantity of iterations in process of calculation of M-estimate are less significant factors; c) consequently, reasonability of usage of one-step M-estimates is justified; d) on the first steps of forecasting with limited quantity of levels of time series, when it’s impossible to define with certainty type of series and when there is no reasons for removal of abnormal levels, it’s preferable to use Braun’s model with Wade’s weights and define start value of exponential average based on one-step robust M-estimates (in other cases it’s better to use simple arithmetical mean).

This study aims to look at the factors that influence coffee exports in Aceh. The data source used is secondary data in the form of time series from 2001 - 2017. The analysis model used is multiple linear regression, Ftest, ttest, and R2 test. Regression analysis results obtained Y = -9,365 - 2,825NT + 2,616HKDN – 1,734HKLN + 1,077PK. F-test results for the dependent variable with the independent variable obtained Ftest = 3.605 while Ftable = 3.41. The ttest results show the exchange rate of the Dollar against Rupiah ttest = 2.622 while ttable = 2.160 where Ha is rejected and H0 is accepted meaning the exchange rate of the Dollar against Rupiah has a significant effect on the volume of coffee exports in Aceh. The results of an analysis of the domestic coffee price ttest= 2,348 while ttable = 2,160 means that the domestic coffee price significantly affects the volume of coffee exports in Aceh. The results of an analysis of overseas coffee prices ttest = -3.543 while ttable = 2.160 means that the price of coffee abroad has a significant effect on the volume of coffee exports in Aceh. The results of the analysis of coffee production ttest = 1,313 while ttable = 2.160 where Ha is accepted and H0 is rejected, meaning that coffee production has no significant effect on the volume of coffee exports in Aceh. The coefficient of determination (R2) shows that 54.6% of coffee exports in Aceh are influenced by the exchange rate, domestic coffee prices, foreign coffee prices and coffee production while the remaining 45.4% is influenced by other factors.

Background: Forecasting of time series stock data is important in financial related works. Stock data usually have multifeatures such as opening price, closing price and so on. The traditional forecast methods, however, is mainly applied to one feature – closing price, or a few, like four or five features. The massive information hidden in the multi-feature data is not thoroughly discovered and used. Objective: Find a method to make used of all information of multi-features and get a forecast model. Method: LSTM based models are introduced in this paper. For comparison, three models are used and they are single LSTM model, hybrid model of LSTM-CNN, and traditional ARIMA model. Results: Experiments with different models are performed on stock data with 50 and 230 features, respectively. Results show that MSE of single LSTM model is 2.4% lower than ARIMA model and MSE of LSTM-CNN model is 12.57% lower than that of single LSTM model on 50 features data. On 230 features data, LSTM-CNN model is found to be improved by 23.41% in forecast accuracy. Conclusion: In this paper, we use three different models – ARIMA, single LSTM and LSTM-CNN hybrid model – to forecast rise and fall of multi-features stock data. It’s found that single LSTM model is better than traditional ARIMA model on the average, and LSTM-CNN hybrid model is better than single LSTM model on 50-feature stock data. What’s more, we use LSTM-CNN model to perform experiments on stock data with 50 and 230 features, respectively. And is found that results of the same model on 230 features data is better than that on 50 features data. It’s proved in our work that the LSTM-CNN hybrid model is better than other models and experiments on stock data with more features could result in better outcomes. We’ll do more works on hybrid models next.

In developing countries with an unstable economic system, permanent fluctuation in historical data is always a concern. Recognizing dependency and independency of variables are vague and proceeding a reliable forecast model is more complex than other countries. Although linearization of nonlinear multivariate economic time-series to predict, may give a result, the nature of data which shows irregularities in the economic system, should be ignored. New approaches of artificial neural network (ANN) help to make a prediction model with keeping data attributes. In this paper, we used the Tehran Stock Exchange (TSE) intraday data in 10 years to forecast the next 2 months. Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) from ANN chooses and outputs compared with the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model. The results show, although, in long term prediction, the forecast accuracy of both models reduce, LSTM outperforms ARIMA, in terms of error of accuracy, significantly.

Exchange rate is one tool to measure a country’s economic conditions. The growth of a stable currency value indicates that the country has a relatively good economic conditions or stable. This study has the purpose to analyze the factors that affect the exchange rate of the Indonesian Rupiah against the United States Dollar in the period of 2000-2013. The data used in this study is a secondary data which are time series data, made up of exports, imports, inflation, the BI rate, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and the money supply (M1) in the quarter base, from first quarter on 2000 to fourth quarter on 2013. Regression model time series data used the ARCH-GARCH with ARCH model selection indicates that the variables that significantly influence the exchange rate are exports, inflation, the central bank rate and the money supply (M1). Whereas import and GDP did not give any influence.

The main purpose of this study is to compare the performances of univariate and bivariate models on four time series variables of the crude palm oil industry in Peninsular Malaysia. The monthly data for the four variables, which are the crude palm oil production, price, import and export, were obtained from Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB) and Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC). In the first part of this study, univariate time series models, namely, the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), fractionally integrated autoregressive moving average (ARFIMA) and autoregressive autoregressive (ARAR) algorithm were used for modelling and forecasting purposes. Subsequently, the dependence between any two of the four variables were checked using the residuals’ sample cross correlation functions before modelling the bivariate time series. In order to model the bivariate time series and make prediction, the transfer function models were used. The forecast accuracy criteria used to evaluate the performances of the models were the mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The results of the univariate time series showed that the best model for predicting the production was ARIMA  while the ARAR algorithm were the best forecast models for predicting both the import and export of crude palm oil. However, ARIMA  appeared to be the best forecast model for price based on the MAE and MAPE values while ARFIMA  emerged the best model based on the RMSE value.  When considering bivariate time series models, the production was dependent on import while the export was dependent on either price or import. The results showed that the bivariate models had better performance compared to the univariate models for production and export of crude palm oil based on the forecast accuracy criteria used.
