ABSTRACT This paper develops and simulates a model of a Bayesian market maker who transacts with noise and position traders in derivative markets. The impact of noise trading is examined relative to price determination in FX futures, noise transmission from futures to options, and...

This article investigates price and trading volume relations for near term crude oil contracts at the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX). The study investigates the informativeness of after-hours trading under the prior assumption that daytime and after-hours trading sessions are completely...

This study uses a vector error correction (VEC) model to examine price-volume relationships between open outcry and e-trading at the Chicago Board of Trade. We test whether equilibrium price corrections on one system are independent of the other, and whether this price behavior is more sensitive...

Purchasing mineral rights to allow a corporation to extract minerals is a large investment and potentially very profitable. Generally, the assessment and valuation process is conducted by an official organization at the nation's governmental level. From a corporation perspective it is thus...

In this paper, we propose an approach to modeling the jump component of a jump-diffusion model using a log mixture of normals distribution. We define explicitly theproperties of the distribution and use it to create an analytic formula for Europeanoption price. Numerous examples of applications...

In this research, we develop a set of new measures to evaluate the data flow in the U.S. equity exchanges using Level I order book data. The quantities we develop and use to summarize trading activity are: the activity-weighted spread and the activity-weighted return. We study the distribution...
