Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to study the mean, the variance, the probability distribution and the hazard rate of the inverse range process of an a-priori unknown volatility random walk. Motivation for this process arises when it is necessary to obtain statistics that pertain to a process volatility in addition to the usual variance statistics. As a result, range process statistics are indicated as an additional source of information in the study of processes' volatility. Examples and applications are considered.
