Arbitrage Opportunities for SHFE Copper Futures and the Mathematical Modeling
Based on the predictive mathematical modeling method
it analyzed the relationship between the LME copper price and the SHFE copper price. Then
it proposed the arbitrage strategy which can help the investor to make a profit. The cointegration test shows that the spot price of copper in the Yangtze River nonferrous metals market
the futures price of copper in LME and COMEX all have cointegration relationship with the futures price of copper in SHFE. Moreover
the copper prices in these four trading markets in the last few trading days were used as variables to establish the final error correction model to predict the current price of SHFE copper. Lastly
it verifies the practicality of the final error correction model.
