1 Pairs trading how to by Arthur J. Schwartz This talk is an illustration of some of the methods discussed by Tim Bogomolov in a previous talk
2 What is pairs trading? We buy stock A, sell short stock B We are not limited to stocks For example we can go long a short term interest rate future, short a long term interest rate future (or vice versa) to capture expected changes in the yield curve We can do gold versus silver; oil versus gas; corn versus soybeans, and so on
3 How many pairs? If you have N stocks (such as 500 in the S&P 500), you have (N)*(N-1)/2 possible pairs For the 500 stocks in the S&P 500: 500*499/2=124,750 possible pairs
4 My example I downloaded data for ten pairs I chose stocks in the same industry sector How to get a list? One way is to look at Value Line, which groups stocks by industry sector Note that Tim s methods do not require stocks to be in the same sector
5 How to download data Go to website: finance.yahoo.com At top click Investing, then Get Quotes On left, click Historical Prices Set beginning and ending dates At bottom, click Download to spread sheet
6 How the data arrive 9/29/ Date, open, high low, close, volume
7 What the data look like Date Open High Low Close Volume Adj Close 9/30/ /29/ /28/ /27/ /26/ /23/
8 Example INTC, AMD, about 250 closing prices Mean=0.4425=average(log INTC-log AMD) Standard deviation=.0515 =stddev(log values above)) Absolute value of CV= =stddev/mean
9 Two tools in TOS software for pairs trading Tool one: in TOS charts, we can directly type A-B such as XOM-CVX. Let s look at a few pars visually Tool two: in TOS charts, we can apply a study called Correlation. A higher number indicates better correlation although the formula is not shown
10 Looking at pairs visually Note that you can apply any method of picking direction to pairs as you would to any stock, future, or forex For example any technical study except a study using volume applies to pairs trading
11 Two ways to use the TOS software for pairs trading Create the chart by typing MOS-POT (symbol one minus symbol two) in the symbol box In TOS Charts, add the correlation study to your chart
12 TOS charts You can do more complicated ratios than one to one. Try typing in IBM-5*MSFT, for example
13 Correlation versus co-integration what s the difference? Correlation means that two stocks move synchronously (if A is up, B is up, for example), over the same time frame (which could be daily, weekly or intra-day). There are various formulas in the literature to quantitatively measure correlation. Co-integration means that the difference in price of A & B may temporarily move away from a mean but that the pair display characteristics showing a reversion to the mean.
14 Methods in Tim s paper Tim presented four methods I ll only discuss methods one and four because the results of two and three were roughly similar to method one Method one is the easiest to understand However the real money is to be made in method four
15 Method one I took ten pairs and calculated log of closing price of A minus log of closing price B, each day for the past year I took the average & standard deviation of these differences The coefficient of variation of these differences is: standard deviation over average; this indicates the volatility around the average; (then take absolute value)
16 All ten stocks On the next slide, the pair with the lowest standard deviation is highlighted. Tim s method would pick the Top 5 which is the five lowest standard deviations I also show the coefficient of variation (standard deviation over mean) as it takes into account the problem of comparing high priced stocks to low priced stocks for ranking the lowest
17 Coefficie ntofvaria tion PAIR Mean Standard deviation (absolute value) INTC-AMD AMR-LUV VZ-T UPS-FDX HD-LOW STRA-APOL XOM-CVX TGT-WMT WFC-C POT-MOS
18 Choosing the best pairs Method One Note that choosing the lowest standard deviation does not result in the same choice as choosing the lowest coefficient of variation
19 Method one, simplified The basic idea is that we ll take price of stock one minus price of stock two. Tim uses the logs of prices. We ll do this for hundreds or thousands of pairs. We ll choose the Top 5 which are the five with the lowest standard deviation We ll buy and sell equal dollar amounts of each stock. For example, long 100 shares of A, short 80 shares of B
20 Method one continued One problem is that if stock A has a high price high relative to stock B ---then A s chart dominates the log A minus log B calculation (compared to two stocks with roughly equal prices). (My solution=choose lowest CV) Example: let s look at AMZN versus BKS, compared to GOOG versus PCLN. Amazon has a much higher price than Barnes & Noble; Google & Priceline are roughly similar in price
21 Method one results Using the table I created, choosing the lowest standard deviation is not the same as choosing the lowest coefficient of variation (CV). Which is better? The results of the method one in Tim s paper beat the market but were sensitive to times of high volatility. Also there were extensive times with a flat equity curve
22 Method one my suggestions to improve Suggestion one. Choose the lowest CV rather than the lowest standard deviation Suggestion two. On the chart of the pair, add lines above and below the pair showing a one standard deviation channel. Count how many times price moved outside that channel, either above or below. Choose the pairs with the most historical movement
23 Method four This is where the real money is The basic idea= plot A minus B Define a price increment; say $1, $5, or $10. (The method would be improved if we had a formula or rule of thumb for the price increment.). Calculate the number of turning points where price touched a price increment, then turned. If it blew through one price increment and kept going that s counted as one not two
24 Method four continued We count price increment moves (PIMs) for all our pairs The winners are the pairs with the most PIMs divided by their annual range. Why? Because they re zigzag-ing the most! We open the pairs trade when price hits an increment We close when price reverts to the mean
25 Method four There is a time stop based on a formula. This might be approximated by a simple rule of thumb such as three weeks. Results for method four showed steady incremental gains to equity over all time periods; returns on equity that significantly exceeded the market; and results were not as affected by market volatility as methods one to three
26 Implementing method four practical issues High priced pairs will have larger boxes (price increments) than lower priced pairs. Should we use the same price increment for all pairs? In my example, I use $2 for all except one pair where $4 made sense as the range for that pair was wider. Choosing a wider PIM reduces the number of PIMs.
27 Method Four How To Calculate the annual range, high minus low, from the chart Visually count the number of turns (actually the number of price increment moves (PIM) (we ll illustrate that in a minute) The best pairs have the highest ratio of number of turns to annual range
28 How to define a PIM It s a move from one price to another in the same direction, by the same price increment (I use $2 in all except one pair, in the example that follows) Example: from 4.00 to 6.00 (or higher); or from 4.00 to 2.00 (or lower) From a practical view, it has to be at the new price for at least three bars and better yet five bars (I use daily bars although weekly or intraday can be used)
29 Why three to five bars? You need time to catch the new price. Three to five bars is arbitrary. Five bars is one trading week. Adopting this rule eliminates a lot of quick gap up or gap down moves, which are hard to catch. See the charts! Pairs often trade in fairly small annual ranges (high minus low) so volatility is much higher than stocks!!!
30 Define A PIM (continued) A price increment move is going from one price to another price --- in the same direction Continued movement in the same direction is not counted as a PIM. Let s look at some of the ten pairs we chose for our example, and count PIMs
31 Example: if a box is an increment of $1 and a pair goes from 4.00 to 5.00 (or higher) that is counted as one PIM. From 4.00 to 5.00 then to 6.00 is still one PIM. But from 4.00 to 5.00, or higher, then back down to 4.00 is two PIMs. Note that we only count it as one if it stays at the new price for at least five days.
32 The best pairs for Method Four The best pairs will have the most PIMs. We re going to catch the zigs and zags by establishing a position, long A and short B, (or short A, long B) at the top or bottom of a price increment Think of this conceptually. Let s say a pair that in the first month moved up exactly one dollar; next month down exactly one dollar; and so on through the year
33 Best pairs (continued) That pair would have eleven PIMs divided by a range of one or a ratio of We d set up a position at the top or bottom of a price increment. Our profits would be significant if the price behavior continues to zig and zag In the real world our ratios will generally be less than and we won t always catch the top or bottom of a price increment

36 Suggestion To explore methods one and four further, we can set up a paper trading account for the group. We can choose one person to calculate the standard deviation and coefficient of variation for fifty pairs. Preferably five people each handling ten pairs, so the calculations do not become too time consuming. We can choose someone else to calculate PIMs for the same pairs (preferably the same five people)
37 Suggestion (continued) We d need someone else to place the trades, set price and time stops, monitor the trade We d need to post all this activity to our Discussion Forums
38 Conclusion Thank you for your comments. Arthur J. Schwartz
