The main goal of this paper is to gain insights into the dependence structure between the duration and trading volume of selected stocks listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. We demonstrate the usefulness of the copula function to describe the dependence of specific unevenly spaced time...

This paper introduces the Markov-Switching Multifractal Duration (MSMD) model by adapting the MSM stochastic volatility model of Calvet and Fisher (2004) to the duration setting. Although the MSMD process is exponential ß-mixing as we show in the paper, it is capable of generating highly...

We establish sufficient conditions on durations that arestationary with finite variance and memory parameter $d \in[0,1/2)$ to ensure that the corresponding counting process $N(t)$satisfies $Var N(t) \sim C t^{2d+1}$ ($Cgt;0$) as $t\rightarrow \infty$, with the same memory parameter $d...
