Abstract
We design a market-making model à la Avellaneda and Stoikov [Quant. Finance, 8 (2008), pp. 217–224] in which the market-takers act strategically, in the sense that they design their trading strategy based on an exogenous trading signal. The market-maker chooses her quotes based on the average market-takers’ behavior, modelled through a mean-field interaction. We derive, up to the resolution of a coupled HJB-Fokker–Planck system, the optimal controls of the market-maker and the representative market-taker. This approach is flexible enough to incorporate different behaviors for the market-takers and takes into account the impact of their strategies on the price process.
期刊介绍:
SIAM Journal on Financial Mathematics (SIFIN) addresses theoretical developments in financial mathematics as well as breakthroughs in the computational challenges they encompass. The journal provides a common platform for scholars interested in the mathematical theory of finance as well as practitioners interested in rigorous treatments of the scientific computational issues related to implementation. On the theoretical side, the journal publishes articles with demonstrable mathematical developments motivated by models of modern finance. On the computational side, it publishes articles introducing new methods and algorithms representing significant (as opposed to incremental) improvements on the existing state of affairs of modern numerical implementations of applied financial mathematics.
