In this article, we have tested the volatility of the returns of the spot exchange rate of AUD/USD for changing conditional variances by using a log likelihood model. Generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedastic models, (GARCH) with t-distributed errors, and exponential generalized...

With the exception of Bitcoin, there appears to be little or no literature on GARCH modelling of cryptocurrencies. This paper provides the first GARCH modelling of the seven most popular cryptocurrencies. Twelve GARCH models are fitted to each cryptocurrency, and their fits are assessed in terms...

We present an econometric method for estimating the parameters of a diffusion model from discretely sampled data. The estimator is transparent, adaptive, and inherits the asymptotic properties of the generally unattainable maximum likelihood estimator. We use this method to estimate a new...
