How to compute price difference for 10-second windows

AhmetHakan — Thu, 04 Feb 2021 09:45:19 GMT

Dear all,

I hope you are doing well despite the pandemic.

The content of the question is copied from https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Programming/Computing-10-second-price-difference/td-p/716368 and then minor adjustments have been made.

I have the following dataset:

Time Volume Price Date

10:02:04 100 100.25 10.01.2021

10:02:07 200 100.35 10.01.2021

10:02:14 300 100.55 10.01.2021

10:02:16 100 100.60 10.01.2021

10:02:16 300 100.70 10.01.2021

10:02:23 200 100.80 10.01.2021

10:02:04 100 100.25 11.01.2021

10:02:07 200 100.35 11.01.2021

10:02:14 300 100.55 11.01.2021

10:02:16 100 100.60 11.01.2021

10:02:16 300 100.70 11.01.2021

10:02:23 200 100.80 11.01.2021

And here is what I want:

Time Volume Price Date Diff

10:02:04 100 100.25 10.01.2021 -0.0029 = (100.25 - 100.55)/100.25 = (price(t)-price(t+10))/price(t)

10:02:07 200 100.35 10.01.2021 -0.0032 = (100.35 - 100.675)/100.35

10:02:14 300 100.55 10.01.2021 -0.0012 = (100.55 - 100.675)/100.55

10:02:16 100 100.60 10.01.2021 . (because there is not observation within 10 seconds window)

10:02:16 300 100.70 10.01.2021

10:02:33 200 100.80 10.01.2021

The same computations for the next day

In short, I need to find price change over 10 seconds windows with some modifications:

1. .If I do not have p(t+10), then I need to select the price that is closest to p(t+10). If I do not have any value within 10 second windows then, I should get ".".

2. If I have two prices in one second, I need to compute the volume-weighted average price for this second and then use it. For example, in my data, I have an interval of 10:02:07. I do not have a price at 10:02:17 and the closest one is the price at 10:02:16. However, in this interval, I have two prices. Therefore, I am computing the volume-weighted average price for this interval (((100/400)*100.60 + (300/400)*100.70) = 100.675) and then use this one.

3. I need to do same computation for each day. Cross days are not allowed. So, each day will have a new start. I have separate date and time variable. Date format is DDMMYYN8. and time format is TOD.

Thank you!

A few tweaks to my original program gives you what you want.

data have;
input Time :time8. Volume Price Date :ddmmyy10.;
format Time time8. Date ddmmyy10.;
datalines;
10:02:04 100 100.25 10.01.2021 
10:02:07 200 100.35 10.01.2021 
10:02:14 300 100.55 10.01.2021 
10:02:16 100 100.60 10.01.2021 
10:02:16 300 100.70 10.01.2021 
10:02:33 200 100.80 10.01.2021 
10:02:04 100 100.25 11.01.2021 
10:02:07 200 100.35 11.01.2021 
10:02:14 300 100.55 11.01.2021

10:02:23 200 100.80 11.01.2021 
;

data want(keep = Time Volume Price dif);
   if _N_ = 1 then do;
      dcl hash h(multidata : "Y", ordered : "Y");
      h.definekey("d", "t");
      h.definedata("d", "t", "v", "p");
      h.definedone();
      dcl hiter hi("h");

      dcl hash hh();
      hh.definekey("d", "t");
      hh.definedata("s");
      hh.definedone();

      do until (z);
         set have end = z;
         h.add(key : date, key : time, data : date, data : time, data : Volume, data : Price);
         if hh.find(key : date, key : Time) ne 0 then s = Volume;
         else                                         s + Volume;
         hh.replace(key : date, key : Time, data : s);
      end;
   end;

   set have;
   d = .; t = .; v = .; p = .; s = .;

   if h.find(key : Date, key : Time + 10) = 0 then mt = t;

   else do;
      rc = hi.setcur(key : Date, key : Time);
      do i = 1 by 1 while(hi.next() = 0 & Date = d);
         if t - time > 10 then do;
            if i = 1 then mt = .;
            leave;
         end;
         if t > time then mt = t;
      end;
   end;

   rc = hh.find(key: date, key : mt);
   rc = h.reset_dup();

   do while (h.do_over(key : date, key : mt) = 0);
      pp = sum(pp, divide(v, s) * p);
   end;

   dif = (Price - pp) / Price;

   format dif 8.4;

run;

Result:

Time      Volume  Price    dif 
10:02:04  100     100.25  -0.0030 
10:02:07  200     100.35  -0.0032

10:02:16  300     100.70   . 
10:02:33  200     100.80   . 
10:02:04  100     100.25  -0.0030 
10:02:07  200     100.35  -0.0032

@PeterClemmensen ,

Many thanks. You saved my day! I will try to fully understand all steps.
