Abstract
SIAM Journal on Financial Mathematics, Volume 14, Issue 3, Page 751-776, September 2023. Abstract. The first half of the paper is devoted to description and implementation of statistical tests arguing for the presence of a Brownian component in the inventories and wealth processes of individual traders. We use intraday data from the Toronto Stock Exchange to provide empirical evidence of this claim. We work with regularly spaced time intervals, as well as with asynchronously observed data. The tests reveal with high significance the presence of a nonzero Brownian motion component. The second half of the paper is concerned with the analysis of trader behaviors throughout the day. We extend the theoretical analysis of an existing optimal execution model to accommodate the presence of Itô inventory processes, and we compare empirically the optimal behavior of traders in such fitted models to the actual behavior we read off the data.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
