intradayModel

Our package uses state-of-the-art state-space models to facilitate the modeling and forecasting of financial intraday signals. It currently offers a univariate model for intraday trading volume, with new features on intraday volatility and multivariate models in development. It is a valuable tool for anyone interested in exploring intraday, algorithmic, and high-frequency trading.

Installation

The package can be installed from GitHub:

# install development version from GitHub
devtools::install_github("convexfi/intradayModel")

Please cite intradayModel in publications:

Quick Start

To get started, we load our package and sample data: the 15-minute intraday trading volume of AAPL from 2019-01-02 to 2019-06-28, covering 124 trading days. We use the first 104 trading days for fitting, and the last 20 days for evaluation of forecasting performance.

volume_aapl_training <- volume_aapl[, 1:104]
volume_aapl_testing <- volume_aapl[, 105:124]

Next, we fit a univariate state-space model using fit_volume() function.

model_fit <- fit_volume(volume_aapl_training)

Once the model is fitted, we can analyze the hidden components of any intraday volume based on all its observations. By calling decompose_volume() function with purpose = "analysis", we obtain the smoothed daily, seasonal, and intraday dynamic components. It involves incorporating both past and future observations to refine the state estimates.

analysis_result <- decompose_volume(purpose = "analysis", model_fit, volume_aapl_training)

# visualization
plots <- generate_plots(analysis_result)
plots$log_components

To see how well our model performs on new data, we call forecast_volume() function to do one-bin-ahead forecast on the testing set.

forecast_result <- forecast_volume(model_fit, volume_aapl_testing)

# visualization
plots <- generate_plots(forecast_result)
plots$original_and_forecast
