Summary: | This directed research project explores the use of deep learning techniques to forecast the price of European Union Allowance (EUA) future contracts. In order to achieve this, a comprehensive review of the literature surrounding emission markets, trading schemes and long short-term memory neural networks is made. Possible explanatory variables for the EUA futures price are selected, curated, and the methodology used to get a forecast is described. Additionally, under the Anatolyev-Gerko (EP) test statistic and the Pesaran-Timmermann (DA) test, there is evidence that a long-short trading strategy using the forecasted values beats the random walk, in other words, the strategy generates value by skill other than luck. |
