KiT: A Foundation Model for Financial Time-Series Forecasting using DiffusionTransformers

Financial candlestick forecasting is fundamental to quantitative investment, yet it remains exceptionally challenging due to extremely low signal-to-noise ratios and vast heterogeneity across markets and instruments. Existing approaches have largely attempted to introduce deep learning to capture hidden temporal featur...

Multi-Scale Transformer for Long-Term Time Series Forecasting

In order to make well-informed decisions, long-term time series forecasting is crucial for a number of applications in finance, energy, and environmental science. While traditional transformer models have demonstrated a strong ability to capture temporal dependencies, they frequently struggle to handle the lengthy sequ...

Volatility-Clustering Adaptation for Financial Time Series

Time-series foundation models are increasingly adapted to new domains through fine-tuning on target data, under the implicit assumption that more target data yields better forecasts. We show that this assumption can fail in financial forecasting, where individual price changes are difficult to predict, but large moves...

Multiscale Complexity and Irreversibility of Non-Stationary Time Series in Commodity Futures Markets

Commodity futures markets exhibit pronounced non-stationarity, nonlinearity, and multifractal characteristics that challenge traditional linear models. We employ a multiscale framework integrating four methodologies—MF-DCCA, PG irreversibility index, MSWPE, and JS-divergence segmentation—to analyze these features using...
