Working Papers

Seria wydawnicza WNE WORKING PAPERS prowadzona jest przez WNE UW od 2008 r. i jak dotąd opublikowano w niej ponad 400 prac.

Seria WNE Working Papers służy szybkiemu upowszechnianiu wyników badań prowadzonych na Wydziale Nauk Ekonomicznych UW. Publikowane tu teksty mają charakter wersji roboczych (pre-printów): mogą być uzupełniane lub poprawiane w miarę postępu prac nad tekstem i procesu wydawniczego. Prezentujemy aktualną wersję udostępnioną przez autorów, opatrzoną datą oraz identyfikatorami DOI/ISSN – co ułatwia jej cytowanie i śledzenie kolejnych iteracji. Każdy dokument zachowuje pełne prawa autorskie swoich twórców, a w przypadku późniejszych zmian, autorzy mogą w dowolnym momencie zamieścić zaktualizowany plik lub wskazać miejsce ostatecznego wydania.

Do serii WORKING PAPERS przyjmowane są artykuły pracowników naukowych WNE UW oraz publikacje z konferencji organizowanych na WNE UW. Artykuły powinny dotyczyć ekonomii, mieć charakter oryginalnych prac badawczych, nie być wcześniej publikowane. Przyjmowane są wyłącznie teksty w języku angielskim.

Prace prosimy przesyłać e-mailem na adres: B09?ams.|/i4hQneS]Ib_R^8%D`]#[6z+%K\[y^zO%\hfT5f?Zh4C.01M

Prosimy przesyłać dwa pliki:

(1) główny tekst bez podania tytułu artykułu oraz autorów (plik DOC/DOCX) oraz

(2) stronę tytułową zawierającą: tytuł opracowania, autorów oraz ich afiliację (plik DOC/DOCX). 

Przed przesłaniem tekstu prosimy zapoznać się z szczegółowymi wymogami edycyjnymi.

WP378. The profitability of pairs trading strategies on Hong-Kong stock market: distance, cointegration, and correlation methods

This research aims to compare the profitability of correlation-based pair trading strategy, cointegration-based pair trading strategy, and distance-based pair trading strategy on the Hong Kong stock market. We try to build an effective pair trading strategy based on 50 stocks listed in the Hang Seng index joining them in market-neutral pairs. The dataset has a daily frequency and covers the period from 07/01/2013 to 07/01/2020. The result shows that all three methods are profitable in the Hong Kong stock market and can beat the market with regard to risk-adjusted return metrics. This result is quite sensitive to the varying number of pairs traded and rebalancing period and less sensitive to financial leverage degree. Moreover, the cointegration method is superior as compared to the correlation method and distance method.

WP345. Applying Hurst Exponent in Pair Trading Strategies

This research aims to seek an alternative approach to pair selection for the purpose of pair trading strategy. We try to build an effective pair trading strategy based on 103 stocks listed in NASDAQ-100 index. The dataset has daily frequency and covers the period from 01/01/2000 to 31/12/2018. In this study, Generalized Hurst Exponent, Correlation and Cointegration are employed to detect the mean-reverting pattern in the time series of linear combination of each pair of stock. The result show that Hurst method cannot outperform the benchmark, which implies that market is efficient. This result is quite sensitive to varying number of pairs traded and rebalancing period and less sensitive to financial leverage degree. Moreover, Hurst method is better than cointegration method but is not superior as compared to correlation method.

WP8. Analysis of HF data on the WSE in the context of EMH

This paper focuses on one of the heavily tested issue in the contemporary finance, i.e. efficient market hypothesis (EMH). The existing evidence in the literature is ambiguous. For some markets the departure from efficiency is observed only when High Frequency (HF) data are analysed. Therefore, we verify efficient market hypothesis (EMH) basing our analysis on 5-minute data for WIG20 index futures quoted on the Warsaw Stock Exchange (WSE). We use robust regression that assigns the higher weights to the better behaved observations in order to verify the existence of daily and hourly effects. Our results indicate that the day of the week effect and hour of the day effect are observed. What is more important is the existence of strong open jump effect for all days except Wednesday and positive day effect for Monday. Considering the hour of the day effect we observe positive, persistent and significant open jump effect and the end of session effect. Aforementioned results confirm our initial hypothesis that Polish stock market is not efficient in the information sense.
