日中ベータ推定における夜間ギャップと急変への対処

# How to account for jumps in intraday data when calculating beta?












I am calculating betas on intraday trade data at 15-minute intervals. For simplicity sake, let's assume I am modeling

\begin{equation} Y = \beta * X + c \end{equation}

where $Y$ is the return of XLF and $X$ is the return of SPY.

If I want to run this on five days of intraday data, should I remove the jump that happens due to opening gaps on the next day?

How do you guys usually handle this jump in returns ?

I assume you're using returns to compute beta, not the prices. And yes, remove the "jumps", though this should happen automatically since you're looking only at intraday returns. One final piece of advice: you'll get more meaningful results if you smooth the returns via a moving average.

In addition to the above I can suggest:

- ignore data point if returns are more than a certain threshold (2 s.d.)

- calculate at different sampling intervals and choose most stable beta with the best significance (certain longer intervals "smooth out" small to mid size jumps)

You can run the regression separately for 5 days, and average the betas you get for different days.
