This study investigates the role of currency order flow in explaining the emerging Asian markets' exchange rates relying on linear and nonlinear modeling. The daily currency order flow of the US dollar relative to the nine important Asian currencies is constituted and explored with the...

Using nonlinear unit root tests developed by Kapetanios et al. (2003), we find strong evidence that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and Wholesale Price Index (WPI) based Malaysian Ringgit – U.S. Dollar (MYR/USD) real exchange rates are nonlinear stationary, implying that MYR/USD nominal...

This chapter model the factors behind the instability of exchange rate by using exchange market pressure (EMP) index. The authors focus first to construct the EMP and then secondly, test the interrelationship between EMP, real gross domestic product, money supply (M2), consumer price index,...
