Abstract

This paper deals with Autoregressive Conditional Duration (ACD) models for ultra-high frequency financial data with attention to the analysis of durations between different market events. On a real dataset of Italian financial market these different types of durations are empirically investigated in order to highlight both their mutual relations and the informative power of a particular distributional assumption. The Pareto distribution turns out to be a good tool for detecting features of different financial durations.
