The daily LME Seel Billes Spo Prices beween and are analyzed and AR[1] ~ GARCH[1,1] discree model is found o be he bes candidae aking all indicaors ino accoun. Then he coninuous analogue of he discree model is derived from he discree model parameers. During he overall sudy, ime (pahwise, disribuional and specral analysis performed. Finally, i is shown ha he volailiy simulaed from boh discree and coninuous models shows similar volailiy paerns. The resuls of he sudy could be uilized o predic he behavior of fuure seel prices moves. In addiion, he finding could be a good reference specialis and researchers who are ineresed in seel marke. Key Words: Seel Modelling, ARMA, GARCH, COGARCH, Lévy Processes, Discree Time Models, Coninuous Time Models, Sochasic Modelling JEL Classificaion: C01, C51 1. INTRODUCTION The volailiy in he commodiy marke increases he imporance of modeling sudies in hose area and he models which have a success in forecasing he commodiy prices receive grea aenion in he las decade. Geman (005:4 analyzed commodiy marke and relaionships beween commodiies in his book. In addiion o general commodiy marke aracion, he seel prices are becoming more and more imporan nowadays and hey direcly or indirecly affec he economy in world. If he hisorical rends are analyzed, high volailiies, 101
2 Vol 4, No, 01 ISSN: (Online upward/downward jumps and drifs could be easily observed. This means ha here is no equilibrium in he seel marke. Alhough he researches and analyses on he behavior of seel prices ogeher wih modeling sudies are increasing, i is also a realiy ha seel price modelling is scarce and i could be defined as quie new subjec in modeling. Those models are really imporan especially in hedging and risk managemen purposes as well as in rading. To be able undersand he characerisic of seel marke, he essenial crieria is o figure ou he sochasic models of seel prices. Since he confidence inervals of he models could change wih ime, he accuracy of he models can be improved wih variance of error models. I comes wih heeroskedasiciy concep in error erms. If he condiional heeroskedasiciy of seel prices could be capured wih sochasic volailiy models (GARCH, hen he accuracy of he model could be improved easily. I is also ime o menion he imporance of ime horizon selecion in he analysis. I plays a vial role in he appropriae model selecion procedure and should be aken ino accoun during all sudies. In financial economerics, mos of he volailiy models are in discree ime, namely GARCH models. Those discree ime models have been widely used in various modeling sudies o be able o capure he characerisics of financial daa. Nelson (1990:7 and Duan (1997:3 sudies are only some of hose. They ried o model he financial daa characerisics by GARCH diffusion approximaions. Because of he fac ha coninuous ime models allow closed form soluions, hey have advanages wih respec o discree ones and hose advanages are ried o be uilized wih several sudies carried ou wih coninuous models. Klüppelberg (004:5 worked on a new coninuous ime GARCH model, namely COGARCH by adaping he single noise process idea.. METHODOLOGY Firs of all, he saionariy of he daa has o be check before saring he discree modelling par. The rend analysis, Augmened Dickey-Fuller es, auocorrelaion and parial auocorrelaion funcions are uilized o be able o idenify wheher he daa is saionary or no. If he daa is no saionary, hen eiher difference or logarihmic difference is applied o make i saionary. The nex sep is o execue discree modeling via Hannan-Rissanen algorihm. In his approach, he resuls of he algorihm are checked wih AIC and BIC values o find he bes candidae model. The bes model should has he lowes 10

The ARCH effecs in he residuals will be eliminaed wih ARCH/GARCH modeling by selecing he bes GARCH model. Finally, he non-negaiviy consrains of GARCH process and he covariance saionary condiion are conrolled before moving o he coninuous modeling. In he coninuous side, discree model parameers are used o find he parameers for COGARCH. The simulaions are carried ou for discree and coninuous models and resuls are compared wih each ohers. Overall, he sudy is covering no only ime analysis, bu also disribuional and specral analysis on he daa. Nelson (1990:7 worked on GARCH diffusion approximaion wih a differen way. In he model, here are wo differen and independen Brownian moions which drive he diffusion, alhough he process is driven by a single noise sequence. G and volailiy process can be represened as: dg db 0 [1] (1 ( ( d db 0 [] where β > 0, η 0, and φ 0 are consans. Klüppelberg (004:5 and Ross (008:8 / 009:9 ogeher wih all ohers model COGARCH wih a direc analogue of GARCH. The model is based on Lévy process and he model consrucion is done by aking limis of an explici represenaion of he discree ime GARCH process. The COGARCH process ( G 0 is defined in erms of is sochasic differenial dg, such ha, dg dl 0 [3] (, d d ( d L L d > 0 [4] where β > 0, η 0, and φ 0 are consans.
