Abstract
This chapter finds that the intraday Nikkei futures returns exhibit different patterns of momentum or mean reversion when changing observation intervals. Using a Markov chains methodology, a significant return momentum was found at 1-min observation interval. However, a significant return mean reversion was found at 10-min observation interval. This switching pattern of momentum to mean reversion is robust to intraday seasonality. Further, the sources that contribute to the high-frequency momentum and mean reversion are explored and it is concluded that large limit orders and the bid-ask effect can play the role.
