- Abstract
The conventional pairs trading strategy of cointegration approach employs a fixed cointegration coefficient, limiting the length of the applicable trading period and negatively influencing profitability. Given these two problems, this paper proposes a pairing trading system based on the co-integration method of the Kalman filter, which can provide investors with profitable trading pairing and market timing. First of all, study the co-integration relationship between every two stocks and co-integrate the stock as a trading pair. Then, based on the analysis of the trading value of the trading stock price by the state-space model, a Kalman filter system to update the co-integer coefficient value is designed. Finally, a trading strategy is developed for the proposed method. In addition, simulations were conducted to assess the performance of the proposed trading system. According to the conventional method and the recommended trading method, twenty pairs of cointegrated stocks were selected to build trading pairs respectively. The simulation results prove that the proposed approach has higher profitability and a more extended trading period than the conventional approach.
