This paper proposes an alternative model to Brownian-type models for high frequency market price processes which is much closer to reality and thus more appropriate for use in process behavior and optimization research. The proposed model is a modified Poisson process

In this thesis, problems in the realm of high frequency trading and optimal market making are established and solved in both single asset and multiple asset economies. For an agent that is averse to holding large inventories for long periods of time, optimal high frequency trading strategies are...

We use the database leak of Mt. Gox exchange to analyze the dynamics of the price of bitcoin from June 2011 to November 2013. This gives us a rare opportunity to study an emerging retail-focused, highly speculative and unregulated market with trader identifiers at a tick transaction level. Jumps...

We introduce a new measure of activity of financial markets that provides a direct access to their level of endogeneity. This measure quantifies how much of price changes are due to endogenous feedback processes, as opposed to exogenous news. For this, we calibrate the self-excited conditional...

This paper considers spot variance path estimation from datasets of intraday high frequency asset prices in the presence of diurnal variance patterns, jumps, leverage effects and microstructure noise. We rely on parametric and nonparametric methods. The estimated spot variance path can be used...

volatility and its curve resembles a smile, meaning that the introduction of jumps is quantified via a smile according to implied … volatility. In order to derive such an implied volatility smile, an iterative search procedure referred to as the Newton …-Raphson algorithm is proposed. Numerical experiments of both the in-house pricing formula and its implied volatility recursive algorithm …
