Abstract

This paper studies drawdown and drawup processes in a general diffusion model. The main result is a formula for the joint distribution of the running minimum and the running maximum of the process stopped at the time of the first drop of size a. As a consequence, we obtain the probabilities that a drawdown of size a precedes a drawup of size b and vice versa. The results are applied to several examples of diffusion processes, such as drifted Brownian motion, Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, and Cox-Ingersoll-Ross process.
