摘要

Under the assumption that asset prices follow a mixed gamma process, this paper first shows that return series can be presented as a difference of two gamma processes and then proposes a realized probability index for return direction forecasting. The underlying distribution of this new index is analyzed and found to be beta-distributed. Both theoretical and empirical results show that this new index is more efficient than the traditional binary index.
