This paper develops the necessary methodology for high frequency ANOVA, which includes the estimations of idiosyncratic volatility and realized R-Squared. Because the residual process is latent in the high frequency regression, the estimation of idiosyncratic volatility is notoriously difficult...

Time-series data, which exhibit a low signal-to-noise ratio, non-stationarity, and non-linearity, are commonly seen in high-frequency stock trading, where the objective is to increase the likelihood of profit by taking advantage of tiny discrepancies in prices and trading on them quickly and in...

We argue that owing to traders' inability to fully express their preferences over the execution times of their orders, contemporary stock market designs are prone to latency arbitrage. In turn, we propose a new order type, which allows traders to specify the time at which their orders are...

This paper reports results and analysis from simulation experiments in which a population of adaptive automated traders compete with one another and co-evolve their trading behaviors on a high-fidelity model of a contemporary electronic financial exchange. The automated traders are all using the...

In recent years major financial exchanges have introduced Frequent Batch Auctions (FBAs) as a novel automated auction mechanism for matching buyers and sellers of various types of asset, in contrast to the traditional Continuous Double Auction (CDA) that has been the basis of such exchanges...

It is an important task to make predictions of trading volumes of financial indices to market participants. In the present study, we focus on this issue for the Chinese Stock Index 300 (CSI300) spot by exploring the high-frequency one-minute data spanning the launch date of the corresponding...

Assuming that investors can be foreign or local, do high-frequency trading (HFT) or not, and submit orders through a bank-owned or non-bank-owned broker, we associated trades to various investors. Then, building a panel vector autoregressive model, we analyzed the dynamic relation of these...

This essay examines three potential arguments against high-frequency trading and offers a qualified critique of the practice. In concrete terms, it examines a variant of high-frequency trading that is all about speed - low-latency trading - in light of moral issues surrounding arbitrage,...
