This paper describes volatility forecasting by using wavelet neural networks. Publication is dedicated for Histrorical Variance forecasting of Equity indexes. Volatility forecasting is very important aspect of financial time series analysis which is widely used by financial institutions such as banks, pension funds, insurance companies and other stock market players. This paper describes short-term and mid-term volatility indicator forecasting such as implied volatility and expected volatility. Forecasting involves wavelet theory (which is a part of signal theory), mathematical statistics and neural networks theory. Research algorithm is related to so called ’North-East Volatility Wind’ Effect which is described in previous papers.
