Long Memory in Stock Trading
arXiv:cond-mat/0303222
Abstract
Using a relationship between the moments of the probability distribution of times between the two consecutive trades (intertrade time distribution) and the moments of the distribution of a daily number of trades we show, that the underlying point process is essentially non-markovian. A detailed analysis of all trades in the EESR stock on the Moscow International Currency Exchange in the period January 2003 - September 2003, including that of correlation between intertrade time intervals is presented. A power-law decay of the correlation provides an additional evidence of the long-memory nature of the series of times of trades. A data set including all trades in Siemens, Commerzbank and Karstadt stocks traded on the Xetra electronic stock exchange of Deutsche Boerse in October 2002 is also considered.
