Cross-correlation measures in the high-frequency domain
Ovidiu V. Precup, Giulia Iori · City Research Online (City University London) · 2005
On a high-frequency scale the time series are not homogeneous, therefore standard correlation measures can not be directly applied to the raw data. To deal with this problem the time series have to be either homogenised through interpolation or methods that can handle raw non-synchronous time series need to be employed. This paper compares two traditional methods that use inter-polation with an alternative method applied directly to the actual time series. The three methods are tested on simulated data and actual trades time series.
