| Tiivistelmä: | Moving average trading rules are utilized in both futures and spot foreign currency markets to show that significant, positive profits can be earned in four of five currencies examined. The results are consistent for both in-sample and forward simulation tests. Regression results demonstrate that central bank intervention is strongly associated with the profitability of trading returns for the three major currencies (DM, Yen and Pound), and partially explains returns for the SF and CD. Consistent with conjectures in previous studies that "news" concerning intervention tends to be revealed over weekends, we find that moving average trading rule returns are significantly positive on Fridays and Mondays, and not significantly different from zero in the middle of the week. |
