The creative destruction wrought by high-frequency algorithmic tradinghas raised increasing concerns about the eect of machine learning behaviorsand ultra high-frequency trading in finnancial markets. By employing a geneticalgorithm with a classifer system as an adaptive learning tool, we...

To capture the well documented time series momentum and reversal in asset price, we develop a continuous-time asset price model, derive the optimal investment strategy theoretically, and test the strategy empirically. We show that, by combining market fundamentals and timing opportunity with...

The use of various moving average (MA) rules remains popular with financial market practitioners. These rules have recently become the focus of a number empirical studies, but there have been very few studies of financial market models where some agents employ technical trading rules of the type...

In this paper we investigate the dynamics of the traditional cobweb model where producres are risk averse and seek to learn the distribution of asset prices. We consider the subjective estimates of the statistical distribution of the market prices based on L-step backward time series of market...

This chapter surveys the boundedly rational heterogeneous agent (BRHA) models of financial markets, to the development of which the authors and several co-authors have contributed in various papers. We give particular emphasis to role of the market clearing mechanism used, the utility function...

Within the framework of the heterogeneous agent paradigm, we establish a stochastic model of speculative price dynamics involving of two types of agents, fundamentalists and chartists, and the market price equilibria of which can be characterised by the invariant measures of a random dynamical...

Within the standard mean-variance framework, this paper provides a procedure to aggregate the heterogeneous beliefs in not only risk preferences and expected payoffs but also variances/covariances into a market consensus belief. Consequently, an asset equilibrium price under heterogeneous...

By developing a continuous-time heterogeneous agent model of multi-assets traded by fundamental and momentum investors, we provide a potential mechanism in generating time-varying dominance between fundamental and non-fundamental in financial market. The deterministic skeleton of the nonlinear...
