Market microstructure and the imperfect common knowledge literature in macroeconomics both analyze the effect of dispersed information on prices. This paper draws on both sources to understand exchange rate forecasting errors. A theoretical model is developed showing that forecasting errors...

We investigate the effects of Central Bank interventions which are designed to smooth exchange rate volatility but are not aimed at a particular trend level. We present a model in which the intervention flow is a non-linear mapping of the market order flow. Simulations show that small daily...

We obtain risk-neutral probabilities of the Brexit referendum using data from both the optionsand prediction markets. We then provide a risk-corrected measure of these probabilities usingboth non-parametric and parametric methods. While former correction marginally changes therisk-neutral...

This paper argues that order flow can explain exchange rate forecasting errors. A unified theoretical model is developed showing that forecasting errors can be explained by both informational rigidities and portfolio shifts. This is applied to Brazilian data using a unique data set of daily...
