Foreign Exchange Rate Forecasting Techniques: Implications for Business and Policy STEPHEN H. GOODMAN* Introduction FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATE FORECASTING is a growth industry. At least 23 com-mercial services throughout the world, employing a variety of techniques, now provide foreign exchange rate forecasts. Forecasting can assist in minimising risk and maximising returns. However, forecasting is a multi-faceted task, and there are a variety of methods in use today. Below is a list of the most popular techniques which may help you to make an informed decision when selecting a forecasting methodology. About the models We have discussed Forex trading forecasting and the main techniques to used by professional traders. We have also exemplified the methods of forecasting the direction of exchange rates. As you can see, the application of certain techniques requires complete understanding, and certain trading skills. In Exchange Rate Forecasting the author sets out to provide a concise survey of the techniques of forecasting - bringing together the various forecasting methods and applying them to the exchange rate in a highly accessible and readable manner. exchange rate movements with order ⁄ow, there are only few empirical results on its forecasting power. The Meese-Rogo⁄ –nding that no available information is useful in forecasting exchange rates out of sample better than a naïve random walk model is robust and remains the conventional wisdom.
Statistical tools like R use forecasting models to analyse historical time series data to predict future values with reasonable accuracy. In this post I will be using R time series to forecast the exchange rate of Australian dollar using daily closing rate of the dollar collected over a period of two years.
