Abstract

In this paper, we study the fractal characteristics of the futures market. We take the empirical study on London Gold Futures yield by Rescaled Range Analysis, analyzing the fractal characteristics of the futures market. We further determine fractal characteristics and the structure of the nonlinear time series through random disturb the original time series observation sequence. The result of R/S analysis shows that the movement of market prices of the financial markets has obvious nonperiodic circle, with Hurst index large than 0.5 and C (t) large than 0, which indicates clear fractal properties. And the result also shows that the influence of price limit on the fractal properties of London Gold Futures Market is very remarkable.
