In this paper, we propose a new jump robust quantile-based realised variancemeasure of ex-post return variation that can be computed using potentially noisy data. This new estimator is consistent for integrated variance and we present feasible central limit theorems which show that it converges...

In this paper, we present a realised range-based multipower variation theory, which can be used to estimate return variation and draw jump-robust inference about the diffusive volatility component, when a high-frequency record of asset prices is available. The standard range-statistic –...
