Abstract
This paper discusses issues related to modeling of financial time series. We discuss so-called empirical “stylized facts” of real price time-series and the evolution of financial models from trivial random walk introduced by Louis Bachelier in 1900 to modern multifractal models, that nowadays are the most parsimonious and flexible models of stochastic volatility. We focus on a particular model of Multifractal Random Walk (MRW), which is the only continuous stochastic stationary causal process with exact multifractal properties and Gaussian infinitesimal increments. The paper presents a method of numerical simulation of realizations of MRW using the Circulant Embedding Method and discuss methods of its calibration.
