Research Papers

Recommended Posts

I've been finding some pretty interesting stuff in the academic research paper basement...If anyone else finds research papers along the lines that would fit in the trading style of most people here please post in this thread(ie. not real interested in exotic derivative type research).

Some this stuff is quite math heavy and I've only printed out a few to actually read over but probly worth a look.

First paper looked difficult I quickly abandoned that. Third one appears to have gone.

 

The second one was a little more interesting however it seems pretty obvious that if it is a FIFO order matching system people will exploit that by placing limit orders at certain levels and then cancelling if they subsequently do not wish to trade at that level. The other thing that does not appear to be discussed is the effect of tick size. Too small a tick size deters people from offering liquidity 'early' (in the form of limit orders) as it costs a relatively smaller amount to join late. So the answer seems obviously yes but less so in markets with smaller tick size. e.g. If you look at say YM compared to ES the difference in the order book is greater than would be suggested by the different total contracts traded. YM is thinner than you would expect as it is cheap to better the inside bid/ask. Another side effect of this is increased volatility.

 

If this sort of stuff interests you a useful and practical book that deals with the effect different exchange regulations have on how the participants operate is Trading and Exchanges: Market Microstructure for Practitioners by Larry Harris. A truly great book that offers a whole lot more solid trading information.

 

Cheers.

Ahh, I actually read Trading and Exchanges quite awhile ago but really need to read it again as I was too much of a newb at the time to really get much from it other than the concept of "front running".

 

Sorry if some of these don't work, it seems the paper download changes pretty quick to having to pay for it. If one does change it seems pretty easy to find the paper with google by just search for the title.

 

I thought this was an interesting comparison between double action markets and bookmakers, which i think might be relevant between specialist/market makers vs ECN

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
