摘要:While studying the S & P 500 financial index, recorded every two minutes, we apply a well-known method of identifying jumps based on the difference between Realized Volatility and Bi-power Variation in each trading day. Surprisingly, we find no indication that jumps occurred on flash crash day (May 06, 2010) and similar days. The problem is that this method cannot tolerate large variations in consecutive intervals, which can cause the bi-power variation to exceed the realized volatility, and consequently leads to a failure to detect jumps. We, therefore, propose a new jump detection method based on a daily volatility measure that uses a median approach to avoid the masking effects caused by multiple large returns. We further introduce running jumps aimed explicitly at studying the occurrence of sequences of large neighbouring returns over successive intervals that effectively form a single jump. Our method captures significant jumps on flash crash day and other days when market events trigger sharp price changes.
