The usual way to explain the difference between cointegration and correlation is to take the example of a drunken man and his dog. Correlation tells you something about the direction in which they are going. Cointegration relates to their distance over time, which in this case is constrained by the leash of the dog. We will demonstrate cointegration using computer-generated time-series and real data. The data can be downloaded from Quandl in CSV format.

The Augmented Dickey Fuller (ADF) test can be used to measure the cointegration of time-series; proceed with the following steps to demonstrate cointegration:

  1. Define the following function to calculate the ADF statistic.

    def calc_adf(x, y):
        result = stat.OLS(x, y).fit()    
        return ts.adfuller(result.resid)
  2. Generate a sine value and calculate the cointegration of the value...
