Price discovery in tick time

Abstract: In this paper we propose a tick time model for the quote setting process on Nasdaq using a time series of all quote updates by the most active dealers and ECN's (Electronic Communication Networks). The model includes duration effects in the volatility of the efficient price and in the covariance of quote updates with the efficient price. As a measure of price discovery we define information shares in tick time. When aggregated to calendar time they provide an alternative for the Hasbrouck (1995) information sh… Show more

“…15 The stock exchanges in both countries use the decimal pricing system. 16 The Canadian and U.S. stock exchanges have the identical open time (9:30 EST or 14:30 UTC) and close time (16:00 EST or 21:00 UTC). Similarities between the Canadian and U.S. stock markets provide a fertile environment for studying price discovery in synchronous markets.…”

“…However, since we do not observe trades and quotes at the same point in time during the day, the model cannot be estimated directly. To estimate the model, we follow Frijns () and Frijns and Schotman (). Specifically, let y l be the observation vector that contains the most recent log prices and log quotes.…”

“…Because both log P 1,t and log P 2,t are I(1) (see Theorem 1) and the linear combination log P 1,t − θ log P 2,t is I(1 + d η ) as defined in Section 3, the logprice series are cointegrated (see Theorems 3, 4, and 5). Frijns and Schotman (2006) considered a mechanism for generating quotes in tick time that is similar to the mechanism shown in Figure 1; however, they condition on durations, whereas we endogenize them in our model (1). Furthermore, their model implies standard cointegration, with a cointegrating parameter known to be 1 and a single value shock component.…”
