Forecasting the Behavior of Fractal Time Series: Hurst Exponent as a Measure of Predictability
Original language description
The Hurst exponent (H) is a statistical measure used to classify time series. H = 0.5 indicates a random series while H > 0.5 indicates a trend reinforcing series. The larger the H value is the stronger trend. In this paper we investigate the use of the Hurst exponent to classify series of financial data representing different periods of time. In this paper we show that series with large values of the Hurst exponent can be predicted more accurately than those series with H value close to 0.5. Thus the Hurst exponent provides a measure for predictability.
