RT Generic T1 Prediction regions for interval-valued time series A1 González-Rivera, Gloria A1 Luo, Yun A1 Ruiz Ortega, Esther A2 Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. Departamento de Estadística, AB We approximate probabilistic forecasts for interval-valued time series by offering alternative approaches. After fitting a possibly non-Gaussian bivariate VAR model to the center/log-range system, we transform prediction regions (analytical and bootstrap) for this system into regions for center/range and upper/lower bounds systems. Monte Carlo simulations show that bootstrap methods are preferred according to several new metrics. For daily S&P500 low/high returns, we build joint conditional prediction regions of the return level and volatility. We illustrate the usefulness of obtaining bootstrap forecasts regions for low/high returns by developing a trading strategy and showing its profitability when compared to using point forecasts.
