Overview 4
Trading
Trading process 5
Trading …
Traditionally, a buy-side initiated trade is placed as an order
with a broker, who then communicates it to a trader/dealer.
In turn, the dealer would trade against own inventory or
work the order on an exchange (pathway A)
Trading process 6
DMA
Direct market access is where the broker allows clients to
access their order routing infrastructure (pathway B)
Trading process 7
Algorithmic trading
Algorithmic trading is a computerized system responsible for
executing orders, rather than being worked by a trader
• Initially such algorithms were used by busy sell-side traders
(pathway C)
• Now clients use their own algorithms (pathway D)
Trading process 8
ECNs
Generally based on central limit order books with continuous
auctions
Trading process 9
MTFs
Multilateral trading facility are European counterparts of
ECNs
• An MTF must be registered with the relevant national regulator
before operations can commence
Trading process 10
ATS/Dark pools
Alternative trading systems provide opaque order-driven
trading platforms that aggregate pools of liquidity
Trading process 11
Dark pools …
Advantages
• Confidential
• Low transaction costs
▪ Important for managing large blocks
Disadvantages
• No trading immediacy
• Darkness is “pre-trade” only
▪ Trades have to be ultimately reported
• There is no mechanism for price determination
▪ Prices for all trades are driven by best bid/offer
▪ Dark pools cannot exist without visible markets
Trading process 12
Market structure
Trading process 13
Price formation
Usually done through some form of fundamental valuation
analysis (discounted cashflow, multiples, etc.)
Price formation 14
Price formation …
Market microstructure focuses of one particular aspect of this
process in the real world (with intermediaries), namely the
determination of the bid-ask spread
Price formation 15
Price
Bid quote is the highest price that someone is publicly willing
to pay
Price formation 16
Spreads
The difference between the ask and bid quotes is the spread
• the spread is the cost incurred by someone who bought and
immediately reversed
• Alternatively, if the bid and ask quote were posted by a single
agent, the spread could represent the realized profit
Price formation 17
Spreads ...
Transaction cost component
Assuming all traders know the asset value with certainty,
prices would bounce between bid and ask prices
Price formation 18
Spreads …
Adverse selection component
Some traders are better informed than others
• Ask price is set higher than the fundamental value to reflect the
fact that the next trade is an informed buyer
• Bid price is set lower than the fundamental value to reflect the fact
that the next trade is an informed seller
Price formation 19
Types of orders
Instructions to the brokers on how to complete the order
Market
• Executed immediately at current market prices
Limit
• Specify prices at which willing to buy/sell
Price formation 20
Market order
Instruction to trade a given quantity at the best possible
price
• No specific price conditions
• Focus is on completing the order
Market orders demand liquidity
• Buy order will execute at the offer/ask price (101)
• Sell order will execute at the bid price (100)
• Immediate cost is half the bid-ask spread (0.5)
Price formation 21
Market order …
For orders larger than the current BBO size, market orders
“walk the book”
• Eg. A buy order for 2,000 may be crossed with S1 and S2
• If the order still can’t be completed, some venues (LSE) will cancel
it, while some (Euronext) will leave the residual on the order book
Price formation 22
Market order …
Risk is the execution price
• If suddenly S2 is cancelled, then our order will cross against S1 and
S3 raising the average execution price to 102.5
Price formation 23
Limit order
Instruction to buy/sell a given quantity at a specified price or
better
• Buy limit order must execute below this price
• Sell limit order must execute above this price
Limit orders 24
Limit order book
Limit orders 25
Limit order …
Buy limit order for 1,000 shares at a price of 100 or better
Limit orders 26
Limit order …
Limit order sacrifices execution to ensure price
Compare limit order to buy 2,000 shares at a price of 101
versus a market order
Limit orders 27
Limit order …
Limit orders provide liquidity
Since traders can choose whether they want to trade with a
limit order, standing limit orders are options to trade (but
not option contracts)
• Sell limit orders are call options
• Buy limit orders are put options
These options are freely granted to the public
• Option value of a limit order is the value of the order to other
traders
▪ Depends on limit price, how long the order will stand, and price volatility
Limit orders 28
Limit order markets
All traders participate equally
Traders publicly post their orders and the transaction price
is the result of the equilibrium of supply and demand
All buy and sell orders are entered in a central order book
and a new order is immediately matched with the book of
limit orders previously submitted
• Limit order book is publicly visible
• Execution of market orders at bid/ask is not guaranteed
Majority of the worldwide markets today are limit order
markets
Limit orders 29
Priority within the book
Price
• A buy order with a relatively high price is said to be (relatively)
aggressive. (“The buyer is willing to pay more”)
• A sell order with a relatively low price is aggressive. (“The seller is
willing to accept less”)
• More aggressive limit orders have priority over less aggressive
orders
Time
• An order that arrives earlier has priority over an order that arrives
later
Other
• Visibility
• Type of trader
Limit orders 30
Hidden orders
A trader who submits a limit order can decide whether or not
it is to be displayed (the default) or hidden
Determinants of spreads
• Information asymmetry ↑
• Volatility ↑
• Limit order management costs ↑
• Value of trader time ↑
Limit orders 32
Margin trading
Using only a portion of the proceeds for an investment;
Borrow remaining component
Margin trades 33
Stock margin trading
Maximum margin is currently 50%; you can borrow up to
50% of the stock value
Margin trades 34
Margin trading – initial conditions
GOOG $720
50% Initial Margin
30% Maintenance Margin
100 Shares Purchased
Initial Position
Stock $72,000 Borrowed $36,000
Equity $36,000

Margin trading – maintenance margin
Stock price falls to $500 per share
New Position
Stock $50,000 Borrowed $36,000
Equity $14,000
Margin trades 36
Margin trading – margin call
How far can the stock price fall before a margin call?
Solving, we get
P = 360/0.7 = $514.3
Margin trades 37
Margin trading – cover margin call
Newer position (raise cash)
Stock $50,000 Borrowed $36,000
Cash $1,000 Equity $15,000
Margin% = 15,000/50,000 = 30%
OR
Mechanics
• Borrow stock through a dealer
• Sell it and deposit proceeds and margin in an account
• Closing out the position: buy the stock and return to the party
from which is was borrowed
Margin trades 39
Short sale mechanics

Margin trades 43
Short sale – margin call
How much can the stock price rise before a margin call?
Margin trades 44
Other details
You pay interest on margin loan
You receive interest on short sale proceeds but you pay the
stock lender
• Net is called short sale rebate
• In exceptional circumstances, stock can go special and have
negative rebate
On borrowed stocks
• You have to pay the dividend (manufactured dividend) to the lender
• Who owns the voting rights?

Trading algorithm
Defines the steps required to execute an order in a specific
way
1. How should we slice the order?
2. How should each slice be managed?
