Market Affine Microscopic ARCH process with MA

This process is build similarly to the Mkt-Aff-Agg-ARCH with MA, but the historical volatilities are computed with a moving average of the microscopic returns instead of the aggregated returns

with τk taken as process parameters.

For the simulation, 4 components are used, corresponding to the intra-day, daily, weekly and monthly horizons. The characteristic time spans τk of the EMAs are as for the aggregated process, namely 0.06, 0.7, 3.5 and 14 days. The remaining parameters are:

The innovations have a Student distribution with 3.5 degree of freedom. The simulation time corresponds to 200 years with a time increment δt = 3 minutes.
