The question addressed in this paper is the performance of the optimal strategy, and the impact of partial information. The setting we consider is that of a stochastic asset price model where the trend follows an unobservable Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. We focus on the optimal strategy with a...

We present in our work a continuous time Capital Asset Pricing Model where the volatilities of the market index and the stock are both stochastic. Using a singular perturbation technique, we provide approximations for the prices of european options on both the stock and the index. These...

In this paper, we establish a model for market making in options whose underlying is perfectly liquid. In our model framework, the stock price follows a generic stochastic volatility model under the real-world probability measure P. Market participants price options on this stock under a...

In this paper, we revisit the "Smile Dynamics" problem. In a previous work, Bergomi built a class of linear stochastic volatility models in which he specified the joint dynamics between the underlying and its instantaneous forward variances. The author introduced a quantity, which he called the...

Order splitting is a standard practice in trading : traders constantly scan the limit order book and choose to limit the size of their market orders to the quantity available at the best limit, thereby controlling the market impact of their orders. In this article, we focus on the other trades,...

A limit order book provides information on available limit order prices and their volumes. Based on these quantities, we give an empirical result on the relationship between the bid-ask liquidity balance and trade sign and we show that liquidity balance on best bid/best ask is quite informative...

In this note, we cast a Hawkes process-based order book model into a markovian setting and; using techniques from the theory of Markov chains and stochastic stability, show that the order book is stable and leads to a diffusive price limit at large time scales.
