We use the theory of nonlinear dynamical systems to measure the complexity of currency markets by estimating the correlation dimension of the returns of the Dollar/Pound and Dollar/Yen daily exchange rates (the spot rates). We test the significance of the results by comparing them to correlation dimension estimates for surrogate time series, i.e. stochastic linear time series with the same power spectrum and amplitude distribution as given by the original data. We find discernible nonlinear structure in the returns of the Dollar/Pound daily rate.
