Within this modeling framework both marginals can be equipped with their own dynamics whereas the contemporaneous dependence between both processes can be flexibly captured via a copula function. We propose a method for testing the goodness-of-fit of such a time series model using probability integral transforms (PIT). This verification procedure allows not only a verification of the goodness-of-fit of the estimated marginal distribution for a continuous variable but also the conditional distribution of a continuous variable given the outcome of its binary counterpart (i.e. the adequacy of the copula choice). We test the model on an empirical example: investigating the relationship between trading volume and the indicators of arbitrarily ’large’ price movements on the interbank EUR/PLN spot market.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={A Bivariate Copula-based Model for a Mixed Binary-Continuous Distribution: A Time Series Approach}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/103773/PDF-MASTER/mainFile.pdf}, doi={10.24425/cejeme.2012.119279}, keywords={copula function, mixed binary-continuous distribution, ACD models, market microstructure}, }
