Nabídka témat závěrečných prací

Bakalářské práce

General topics, preferably applied (you are more than welcome to specify the topic yourself):

Topics on Crypto(currency) markets
Topics on Efficient markets hypothesis
Topics on Market Endogeneity
Topics on Asset Pricing

Currently supervised theses:
Bachelor:

• The Implied order book: modelling liquidity to detect crashes - joint supervision with Michael Mark from EPFL
  
• Connectedness between stocks of cryptocurrency-linked US companies and the cryptocurrency market.
  
• Comparison of LSTM and random forest on forecasting small-cap stocks from different regions
  

Master:

• DeFi: assessing adoption and most valuable metrics for the price discovery
  
• Liquidations in the cryptocurrency market: market reactions and potential trading opportunities
  

I will be happy to supervise theses on financial econometrics and/or machine learning in finance.
Couple of personal rules:

• Email me with details when you want to defend, when is the deadline for the proposal. Ideally, with a specified topic.


• Pick at one or two very good papers as the backbone of the topic - see ies journal ranking at the bottom of the page, and start researching from the top. It is ok if you don't understand the details; it is an exercise to understand motivation and research context. Don't worry about the greek letters at all at this stage!


• If you like something, check related articles through Connected papers to dig deeper in the topic.
  
• Check writing tips by prof Cochrane for good academic text. Applies definitely to BSc and MSc theses as well!
  
• We will have monthly status meetings - up to 30 minutes - online or in person once you start working on it. Ad hoc consults are of course, available!


• Complete draft 1 month prior to submission


• If you are searching for a crypto-related topic, check Understanding Cryptocurrencies article to get a quick overview of some topics and follow references within. There is a new journal Digital Finance with lots of crypto research.
