GARCH Persistence & Return Series Wavelet De-noising

Postby Abdelrazzaq » Sun Sep 14, 2014 7:07 am

Hi there;
I am doing my PhD research to invistigate the effect of wavelet denoising on stock market volatility using all standard garch models(GARCH,EG,AP,TG,CG). I already de-noised the return sereis using the wavelet transform and that already done on Matlab trying to estimate the models in eviews. What iam having is persistence level (alpha + beta) greater than one in GARCH model for the denoised return sereis and lower than one for the contaminated (original) return series. I beleive that this represents violating of the standard GARCH condition and therefore the existence of explosive nature of conditional volatility. What i cannot understand is why for all models the out-of-sample forecasting error decreased for the denoised data. In other words, why the in sample estimation is very bad and the out-of sample is good with such improvements in forecasting? Please find attached and note that again i denoised thre return series and for all estimations i get (alpha) estimate is lower for the standard garch models and higher for denoised-series based GARCH models.

looking forward to hearing your reply as soon as possible.

Please noe that
