This is a bit DSP-related: so if you turn your non-stationary time series into a stationary process, you'll probably see that it is not periodic.. This is an issue for Fourier-based techniques because they are not local in frequency. Now, besides wavelets (some types are causal btw), which other causal techniques can you use? (and ARMA is not it). I tried Empirical Mode Decomposition (HHT), but that's not causal; I tried Intrinsic Time-scale Decomposition: not causal either. Wavelets are pretty old and I would think something better would have been "discovered" by now? Does anyone know of a good causal signal processing technique that deals well with non-periodicity? Thanks!!

$\begingroup$ Have you managed to implement some causal versions of wavelets with success? $\endgroup$– RockScienceCommented Jul 5, 2011 at 10:55

I know only that Jurik's JMA is good causal filter, better than Kalman and Volterra filters, but I don't know for sure what algorithm inside - it's black box. Does anybody know better causal filter?

$\begingroup$ Do you of anyone else have more information about this filter? I can only find the author's website and I'm not convinced by it. $\endgroup$– Bob Jansen ♦Commented Sep 18, 2011 at 12:10

$\begingroup$ @babelproofreader I've used this code for MT4, but it's not Jurik original. So their quality is little bit different than original ones. $\endgroup$– IgorCommented Oct 4, 2011 at 13:35

Wavelets and Kalman filtering.

$\begingroup$ Wavelet is not a causal technique. there is a huge boundery effect due to the selection of either "reflection" of "periodic" $\endgroup$ Commented Jul 5, 2011 at 10:13

The issue with wavelets is that you'll have some boundary distortions so be careful when exploiting the results.
