We show, on the basis of our recently introduced stochastic model, that triangular arbitrage makes the auto-correlation function of foreign exchange rates negative in a short time scale.

We analyze high-resolution foreign exchange data consisting of 20 million data points of USD-JPY for 13 years to report firm statistical laws in distributions and correlations of exchange rate fluctuations. A conditional probability density analysis clearly shows the existence of trend-following...

We introduce a weighted-moving-average analysis for the tick-by-tick data of yen–dollar exchange rates. The weights are determined automatically for given data by applying the Yule–Walker formula for autoregressive model. Although the data are non-stationary, the resulting moving average...

We first show that there are in fact triangular arbitrage opportunities in the spot foreign exchange markets, analyzing the time dependence of the yen–dollar rate, the dollar–euro rate and the yen–euro rate. Next, we propose a model of foreign exchange rates with an interaction. The model...
