Popis: This study introduces a new volatility model based on dependent functional data to investigate the intraday volatility characteristics of CSI 300 in the context of high-frequency data. The volatility curve is fitted and reconstructed using three methods: functional principal component analysis, Newey-West kernel, and truncationfree Bartlett kernel. We adopt a functional time series approach for short-term dynamic forecasting. The empirical results show that the proposed dependent functional volatility estimation model based on the long-term covariance of the truncated Bartlett kernel can accurately capture the intraday volatility trajectory and outperforms other models in terms of forecast accuracy and profitability. This study improves the volatility-related research methodology, which is conducive to discovering the price formation mechanism of the stock index futures market and improving risk management capabilities.
