This paper examines causality between the series of returns and transaction volumes in high frequency data. The dynamics of both series is restricted to transitions between a finite number of states. Depending on the state selection criteria, this approach approximates the dynamics of varying...

This paper introduces impulse response analysis for nonlinear processes based on the concept of nonlinear innovation. Our approach borrows from the traditional linear impulse response analysis in that we consider shocks to innovations of a process. It also extends the methods of nonlinear...
