The fractional volatility model: An agent-based interpretation

arXiv:0706.3827 · doi:10.1016/j.physa.2008.01.052

Abstract

Based on criteria of mathematical simplicity and consistency with empirical market data, a model with volatility driven by fractional noise has been constructed which provides a fairly accurate mathematical parametrization of the data. Here, some features of the model are discussed and, using agent-based models, one tries to find which agent strategies and (or) properties of the financial institutions might be responsible for the features of the fractional volatility model.
