Forecast volatility

Anyone would have got any comments on these books?

 

thanks for bumping this, i made a post in the education section b/c i wanted to learn how to forecast vol

 

Rob Engle's site at NYU Stern publishes daily index vol forecasts.

They're pretty good, considering.

Straight GARCH for one-month ahead vol. E- or T-GARCH for instantaneous (one-day ahead) vol, and zero-slope Spline GARCH for best fraction same sign close-to-close VXX moves.
