摘要
The paper studies the nonparametric connection between realized and implied volatilities. No-arbitrage identities and comparison inequalities are found. We formulate the multi-factor trading system on the volatility scale. To empirically determine the number of factors, we develop a high frequency analysis for sequential F-testing. We also design a cross validated estimate of quadratic variation.
