Cocoa lagged returns against current returns
Autocorrelation, which is Cocoa commodity's lagged correlation, explains the relationship between observations of its time series of returns over different periods of time. The observations are said to be independent if autocorrelation is zero. Autocorrelation is calculated as a function of mean and variance and can have practical application in predicting Cocoa's commodity expected returns. We can calculate the autocorrelation of Cocoa returns to help us make a trade decision. For example, suppose you find that Cocoa has exhibited high autocorrelation historically, and you observe that the commodity is moving up for the past few days. In that case, you can expect the price movement to match the lagging time series.
