Abstract

This research analyzes asymmetric volatility and multifractality in four representative cryptocurrencies using index-based asymmetric multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis. We suggest investigating an idiosyncratic risk premium, which can be obtained by removing the market influence in the cryptocurrency return series. We call the process a capital asset pricing model filter. The analyses on the original return series showed no significant sign of asymmetric volatility. However, the filter revealed a distinct asymmetric volatility, distinguishing the uptrend and downtrend fluctuations. Furthermore, the analyses on the idiosyncratic risk premium detected some cases of asymmetry in the degree and source of multifractality, whereas that on the original return series failed to detect the asymmetry. In conclusion, in a highly volatile market, the capital asset pricing model filter can improve an investigation of the asymmetric multifractality in cryptocurrencies.
