Sample ARMA Forecast Data

Description

A pre-computed backtest of the SPY log returns data using an ARMA(1,1)-JSU model (see details for replication code).

Usage

arma_forecast

Format

`arma_forecast`

A data.table with 250 rows and 5 columns:

date: the forecast date
actual: the realized values
forecast: the forecast mu
sigma: the estimated sigma
skew: the estimated skew of the jsu distribution
shape: the estimated shape of the jsu distribution

Details

The replication code for the backtest based 1-step ahead forecast distribution is as follows:

library(xts)
library(tsarma)
# from the tsmodels github repo
data("spy", package = "tstests")
spyr <- na.omit(diff(log(spy)))
n <- NROW(spyr)
spec <- arma_modelspec(spyr, order c(1,1), distribution = "jsu")
b <- tsbacktest(spec, start = (n - 250), end = n, h = 1, estimate_every = 30,
rolling = T, trace = T)
arma_forecast <- data.table(date = b$table$forecast_date,
actual = b$table$actual, forecast = b$table$mu, sigma = b$table$sigma,
skew = b$table$skew, shape = b$table$shape)

The Non-Parametric Density Test of Hong and Li

Description

Implements the Non-Parametric Density Test of Hong and Li (2005).

Usage

hongli_test(x, lags = 4, conf_level = 0.95, ...)

Arguments

x

a series representing the PIT transformed actuals given the forecast values.

lags

the number lags to use for testing the joint hypothesis.

conf_level

the confidence level for generating the critical values which serve as thresholds for deciding on the null hypothesis.

...

none.

Details

A novel method to analyze how well a conditional density fits the underlying data is through the probability integral transformation (PIT) discussed in Rosenblatt (1952) and used in the berkowitz_test. Hong and Li (2005) introduced a nonparametric portmanteau test, building on the work of Ait-Sahalia (1996), which tests the joint hypothesis of i.i.d and uniformity for a series of PIT transformed data. To achieve this, it tests for misspecification in the conditional moments of the model transformed standardized residuals, and is distributed as N(0, 1) under the null of a correctly specified model. These moment tests are reported as ‘M(1,1)’ to ‘M(4,4)’ in the output, with ‘M(1,2)’ related to ARCH-in-mean effects, and ‘M(2,1)’ to leverage, while ‘W’ is the Portmanteu type test statistic for general misspecification (using p lags) and also distributed as N(0, 1) under the null of a correctly specified model. Only upper tail critical values are used in this test. The interested reader is referred to the paper for more details.

Value

An object of class “tstest.hongli” which has a print and “as_flextable” method.

Nyblom-Hansen Parameter Constancy Test

Description

The parameter constancy test of Nyblom (1989).

Usage

nyblom_test(
  x,
  scores = NULL,
  parameter_names = colnames(scores),
  parameter_symbols = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

x

a series representing the standardized residuals of some estimated model.

scores

the log likelihood score matrix. The estfun method if exported by a package for a model will return this matrix.

parameter_names

optional character vector of the parameter names. Usually read off the column names of the score matrix.

parameter_symbols

an optional character vector of the latex names of the parameters which can be used when printing using the flextable format.

...

not currently used.

Details

The p-values for the test statistic are based on a pre-computed density, by simulation using equation 3.3 of Nyblom (1989), with up to 40 parameters and saved as an internal data object within the package. A kernel density is used to fit the 10,000 samples of the distribution before extracting the p-values. The original simulation generated more than 100,000 data points but these were compressed to quantiles at intervals of 0.001 in order to keep the package size under 5MB.

Value

An object of class “tstest.nyblom” which has a print and as_flextable method.

Expected Shortfall DE Test

Description

The expected shortfall test of Du and Escanciano (2017).

Usage

shortfall_de_test(x, alpha = 0.05, lags = 1, boot = FALSE, n_boot = 2000, ...)

Arguments

x

the probability integral transformed series (pit).

the quantile level for calculating the forecast value at risk and expected shortfall.

lags

the numbers of lags to use for the conditional test.

boot

whether to use bootstrap simulation for estimating the p-values.

n_boot

the bootstrap replications used to calculate the p-value.

...

not currently used.

Details

The test of Du and Escanciano (2017) combines ideas from Berkowitz (2001) and Christoffersen (1998) to create an unconditional and conditional shortfall test based on the probability integral transformed actuals conditioned on the forecast distribution to evaluate the severity and independence of the residuals shortfall (based on violations of VaR). The unconditional test (severity) checks for the mean of cumulative violations using a t-test, whilst the conditional test (independence) is a Portmanteau test applied to estimated cumulative violations. A bootstrap approach to calculating the distribution of the test statistics is available for finite samples, similar to the suggestions of McNeil (2000).

Value

An object of class “tstest.shortfall_de” which has a print and as_flextable method.

Usage

Format

Value at Risk CP Test

Description

The value at risk coverage and duration tests of Kupiec (1995) and Christoffersen and Pelletier (1998,2004).

Usage

var_cp_test(actual, forecast, alpha, ...)

Arguments

actual

a series representing the actual value of the series in the out of sample period.

forecast

the forecast values of the series at the quantile given by alpha (the forecast value at risk).

alpha

the quantile level used to calculate the forecast value at risk.

...

not currently used.

Details

The unconditional (Kupiec 1995) and conditional (Christoffersen and Pelletier 1998) coverage tests evaluate the correctness and independence of value at risk violations (failures), individually and jointly. Correctness is measured in terms of the expected and actual violations of value at risk for a given quantile and data size, whilst independence checks the clustering of violations with past violations, which is key in determining whether a model can accurately capture the higher order dynamics of a series. The duration of time between value ar risk violations (no-hits) should ideally be independent and not cluster. Under the null hypothesis of a correctly specified risk model, the no-hit duration should have no memory. Since the only continuous distribution which is memory free is the exponential, the test can conducted on any distribution which embeds the exponential as a restricted case, and a likelihood ratio test then conducted to see whether the restriction holds. Following Christoffersen and Pelletier (2004), the Weibull distribution is used with parameter ‘b=1’ representing the case of the exponential.

Value

An object of class “tstest.var_cp” which has a print and as_flextable method.
