Low-Frequency Price-Volume Factors from Rolling Price Extremes

Summary

This brief note lists four candidate low-frequency factors based on daily price behavior over a rolling window: the close’s relative position or spread within the period, the relative index of the period high, the relative index of the period low, and the time distance between the high and low. It suggests evaluating these measures across several lookback horizons ranging from short to long periods.

The page appears to introduce factor definitions for quantitative research, but the formulas, implementation, strategy source, and rationale are absent from the supplied text. It reports no tests, portfolio results, or evidence about predictive value. Consequently, the concepts can be identified, but their exact normalization and interpretation cannot be reconstructed from this document alone.

Key ideas

• The note proposes measuring the close’s relative position within a rolling price range.
• It lists the relative timing of rolling highs and lows as separate candidate factors.
• It also identifies the time separation between a period high and low as a possible factor.
• Several lookback horizons are suggested, but formulas and validation results are not included.
