On Data-Driven Log-Optimal Portfolio: A Sliding Window Approach
arXiv:2206.12148 · doi:10.1016/j.ifacol.2022.11.098
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a data-driven sliding window approach to solve a log-optimal portfolio problem. In contrast to many of the existing papers, this approach leads to a trading strategy with time-varying portfolio weights rather than fixed constant weights. We show, by conducting various empirical studies, that the approach possesses a superior trading performance to the classical log-optimal portfolio in the sense of having a higher cumulative rate of returns.
