We explore the relation between limit order price clustering and price efficiency. We find that executed sell limit orders cluster more frequently on round increments than buy limit orders and that this asymmetry in clustering is consistent with the well documented asymmetry in price response to...

Because dividends are taxed at a higher rate than capital gains, as stock with a higher yields should have a higher expected return than a stock whose return is expected to result mostly from price appreciation. Adding yield to the traditional Security Market Line results in a "market plane"...

Instead of using the classical block-shaped market depth to build the optimal execution model, this work studies the constrained optimal execution problem in a limit order book (LOB) market with a power-shaped market depth. Different from the linear price impact derived from the framework of...

This paper analyzes the limit order book events arrival dependency structure using high-dimensional Hawkes processes. We seek for recurrent relationships among events from a set of 86 event types which in addition to transactions, includes limit order submissions and cancellations taking place...

This work's main purpose is to understand the price dynamics in a generic limit order market, and illustrate a dynamical trading mechanism that can be applied to explore its market microstructure. First and foremost, we capture the iterative nature of the limit order market, and quantitatively...
