We study performance and competition among high-frequency traders (HFTs). We construct measures of latency and find that differences in relative latency account for large differences in HFTs' trading performance. HFTs that improve their latency rank due to colocation upgrades see improved...

Finally, we highlight conditions on the … directing process which are required in order to generate proper volatility dynamics while simultaneously matching the … unconditional distribution of returns. In-sample fitting and out-of-sample realized volatility forecasting demonstrate the strength …
