  • Description: <jats:p>This paper tries to empirically investigate whether the information contained in trading volume, volume volatility of Won/Dollar currency futures may be statistically useful in forecasting currency spot return. This paper uses both the jump-diffusion GARCH model and the bivariate GARCH type BEKK model to estimate the trading volume volatility of currency futures and the volatility of currency spot, sampled daily during 1/4/2000~12/30/2009 period. According to the findings of this study, previous information contained in both trading volume and the volume volatility of Won/Dollar currency futures might be useful in explaining the future return of the currency spot.</jats:p>
