13 Price Pathing The current forward quotations are the baseline for the scenario generation. The scenarios are generated in such a way that for every day the average over all scenarios is equal the forward curve, thus satisfying the arbitrage free condition Stochastic Price Model Monte Carlo Scenario Generation Scenario Tree Generation Stochastic price models aim to model (scenario) deviation from forward curve using following logic For a given day, forward settlement prices are known and fixed, and thus the mean value to which the spot price scenario is supposed to revert to is also fixed Tomorrow however the expected value of the forward curve will have changed and thus the spot prices will be affected by the uncertainty of this mean-value as well Purpose of Monte Carlo scenario generation is to produce sufficiently many scenarios of joint (correlated) evolutions of forward products quotes in future 13
14 14 Stochastic Price Processes
15 Stochastic Pilipovic Process G = Simulated Deviation of Spot Price Mean Reversion ( s/ w) t ( s/ w) G ( s/ w) ( s/ w) dgt ( Yt Gt ) dt G dy dw ( G) ( G) G t T 2 Short Term Volatility dw ( s/ w) t Long Term Evolution G( t) G(0) exp( G ( t)) G = Simulated Deviation of Spot Price t Equation is referred to as a 2-risk Factor Stochastic Pilipovic Process because the simulated deviation of the Spot Price depends on a mean reversion and a short term volatility (G) dyt s w dg ( / ) t t Deviation form Long Term Price Simulated Deviation of Spot Price 15
16 Parameter Estimation for gas price Pilipovic Process Aims to provide parameters that enter into stochastic differential equations (Pilipovic equation) describing natural gas prices on different hubs, oil and other commodity prices Assuming that future is not much unlike the past, parameters can be extracted from historical prices Parameters to be estimated Short Term Mean Reversion α s/w Spot Volatility σ G s/w Long Term Mean Reversion ν G Input curves required for Parameter Estimation Historic spot price curve (red line) Historic Price Forward Curve (blue line) Historic quote of a selected forward product (green line) 16
17 Korrelation der Commodity-Preise System of stochastic differential equations for power, gas and CO2-prices Mean- Reversion Power spot price process (two factor): Fuel price process (two factor): Langzeit-Trend Volatilität CO2 price process: 17
18 System of stochastic differential equations for power prices, run of river and high mountain hydro inflows Spot price process: Long term process of EEX forwards: run of river inflows: high mountain inflows: Stochastic inflow process: Brownian motion with mean reversion, log normal distribution 18
19 Correlation of Commodity Prices Model of 4 Correlated Stochastic Price Processes for Oil, Power, Gas and CO2 (two factor models for oil and power) 19
20 Preprocessing of time series for the parameter estimation Gap Filling becomes importance due to different granularities in the commodity time series! 1. Check the historic time interval whether all needed time series data are available 2. Generation of logarithmic time series X(t) based on the historic spot prices S(t) and the historic PFCs F(t), for gas and power prices (Historic PFCs F(t) must be re-calculated, if not available anymore) 3. Assignment of price bands to the historic time series of power and gas prices 4. Filtering jumps out of the historic power price time series S(t) by means of 6-Sigma-Method (otherwise over-estimation of the volatility) 5. Gap filling in the historic time series utilizing Brownian Bridge or Ohrnstein-Uhlenbeck Bridges 6. Estimation of jump terms for power price process Jump height, jump intensity (separately for up and down jumps) Identification of jumps: 6-sigma-method 20
21 Kalman-Filtering: Iterative Max-Log-Likelihood-Estimation Start: Initial Set of Parameters,, r etc... Loop Generate a prediction for the next (multidimensional) value (time step by time step) Kalman Filter Prediction Calculate the error (difference) between prediction and real observation (time step by time step) Cumulate the error terms with respect to the parameters => Numeric Max Likelihood-Function Search for new parameters, which maximize the likelihoodfunction and thereby minimize the prediction error. Eventually the improved parameters are determined. Next loop Stopping criteria: if the improvements of the parameters falls below a defined value of e Correction 21
