\[ \begin{align*}
Y_t &= \mu + \varepsilon_t \\
\varepsilon_t &= \sigma_t \cdot z_t \\
\sigma_t^2 &= \omega + \alpha \cdot \varepsilon_{t-1}^2 + \beta \cdot \sigma_{t-1}^2
\end{align*} \]
Certainly! Here's the LaTeX formula for a GARCH(1,1) model, which is one of the simplest forms of a Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedasticity model:
```latex
\begin{align*}
Y_t &= \mu + \varepsilon_t \\
\varepsilon_t &= \sigma_t \cdot z_t \\
\sigma_t^2 &= \omega + \alpha \cdot \varepsilon_{t-1}^2 + \beta \cdot \sigma_{t-1}^2
\end{align*}
```
In this formula:
- \(Y_t\) represents the observed time series data.
- \(\mu\) is the mean of the time series.
- \(\varepsilon_t\) is the residual or innovation at time \(t\).
- \(\sigma_t\) is the conditional standard deviation (volatility) at time \(t\).
- \(z_t\) is a white noise error term with mean zero and unit variance.
- \(\omega\), \(\alpha\), and \(\beta\) are the model parameters to be estimated. \(\omega\) is the constant term, \(\alpha\) is the autoregressive term for squared residuals, and \(\beta\) is the autoregressive term for conditional variances.
Now, let's provide an example. Suppose we have daily stock returns and want to estimate a GARCH(1,1) model for volatility forecasting. We have the following data:
- \(Y_t\) represents the daily stock returns.
- \(\mu = 0.001\) (mean return).
- We estimate \(\omega = 0.0001\), \(\alpha = 0.2\), and \(\beta = 0.7\) as model parameters.
You can use these values in the GARCH(1,1) model formula to forecast the conditional standard deviation (\(\sigma_t\)) for future time periods. This can be done recursively, starting from an initial estimate of \(\sigma_0\).
Please note that in practice, model parameters are estimated from historical data using statistical software or programming languages like R, Python, or specialized econometric software.
Certainly! The GARCH(1,1) model is a way to understand and forecast volatility (how much a value fluctuates) in time series data, like stock prices. Here's a simpler explanation:
1. **Mean:** Suppose you have some data, like daily stock returns. You start by estimating the average (mean) return, which is represented by \(\mu\). This is just the typical return.
2. **Volatility:** Next, you want to know how much the returns vary from day to day. This is where the GARCH model comes in. The idea is to estimate the "volatility" of the returns, represented by \(\sigma_t\), for each day.
3. **How Volatility Changes:** The GARCH(1,1) model says that the volatility today (\(\sigma_t\)) depends on three things:
- A constant term \(\omega\) (like a baseline volatility).
- The squared error from yesterday (\(\varepsilon_{t-1}^2\)) which measures how much the returns deviated from the mean yesterday.
- The previous day's estimated volatility (\(\sigma_{t-1}^2\)), which accounts for how volatile it was yesterday.
4. **Parameters:** There are three numbers to estimate (\(\omega\), \(\alpha\), and \(\beta\)) that control how these factors affect today's volatility. \(\omega\) is like a starting point for volatility, \(\alpha\) measures how sensitive today's volatility is to past errors, and \(\beta\) measures how persistent past volatility is.
So, in practice, you estimate these three numbers from historical data to create a model. Then, you can use this model to forecast how volatile the data is likely to be in the future.
For example, if you estimate \(\omega = 0.0001\), \(\alpha = 0.2\), and \(\beta = 0.7\), you can use this model to predict future volatility based on past data.
