Abstract

Crude oil is an important chemical raw material and energy source, and its price is very crucial to the cost of industrial development. Therefore, the forecast of crude oil prices is also very meaningful. This paper studies the correlation between the actual daily, weekly, and monthly volatility and the forecast volatility by establishing a HAR-RV model. Through the establishment of this model, we study the influence of the weekday effect on the forecast of volatility and find that the forecast of daily volatility is positively correlated with weekly volatility, while daily, weekly and monthly volatilities have a positive correlation with the forecast of weekly volatility. Besides, we have also established the HAR-RV-SW model and obtained the forecast of the volatility of daily, weekly, and monthly has a day-to-the-week effect. This can help us predict crude oil futures prices through historical data.
