Abstract: In this paper, we apply several models to forecast the WTI monthly crude oil price from the long-term and short-term aspects. Then we use several diagnostic assessments to check the predictive abilities of the competing models. The results show that EGARCH model is more suitable for the short-term forecast, while the TARCH model is more appropriate for forecasting long-term oil price than other models.
