SR.SE: Standard Error Estimate for Sharpe Ratio (SR) of Returns

SR.SER Documentation

Standard Error Estimate for Sharpe Ratio (SR) of Returns

Description

SR.SE computes the standard error of the Sharpe ratio of the returns.

Usage

SR.SE(
  data,
  rf = 0,
  se.method = c("IFiid", "IFcor", "IFcorAdapt", "IFcorPW", "BOOTiid", "BOOTcor")[c(1, 4)],
  cleanOutliers = FALSE,
  fitting.method = c("Exponential", "Gamma")[1],
  d.GLM.EN = 5,
  freq.include = c("All", "Decimate", "Truncate")[1],
  freq.par = 0.5,
  corOut = c("none", "retCor", "retIFCor", "retIFCorPW")[1],
  return.coef = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

data

Data of returns for one or multiple assets or portfolios.

rf

Risk free rate.

se.method

A character string indicating which method should be used to compute the standard error of the estimated standard deviation. One or a combination of: "IFiid" (default), "IFcor", "IFcorPW", "IFcorAdapt" (default), "BOOTiid" or "BOOTcor".

cleanOutliers

Boolean variable to indicate whether the pre-whitenning of the influence functions TS should be done through a robust filter. Default if FALSE.

fitting.method

Distribution used in the standard errors computation. Should be one of "Exponential" (default) or "Gamma".

d.GLM.EN

Order of the polynomial for the Exponential or Gamma fitting. Default polynomial order of 5.

freq.include

Frequency domain inclusion criteria. Must be one of "All" (default), "Decimate" or "Truncate."

freq.par

Percentage of the frequency used if "freq.include" is "Decimate" or "Truncate." Default is 0.5.

corOut

Return correlation of the returns or the influence function transformed returns. Must be one of "retCor", "retIFCor" or "none" (default).

return.coef

Boolean variable to indicate whether the coefficients of the penalized GLM fit are returned. Default if FALSE.

...

Additional parameters.

Value

A vector or a list depending on se.method.

      cleanOutliers = FALSE,
      fitting.method = c("Exponential", "Gamma")[1])
