摘要
Most empirical FX microstructure research uses indicative quotes to proxy for firm, tradeable quotes. This paper presents comparison of the characteristics of one week of indicative DEM/USD data with contemporaneous, transactions-based data from an electronic FX brokerage. A high-frequency analysis yields the following results. Indicative returns are more volatile and more strongly autocorrelated than firm returns. Unlike firm spreads, indicative spreads contain no information on market liquidity. Indicative returns lag firm returns by around 3 minutes. These differences disappear with aggregation. Return properties are similar when sampled every 5 minutes and are essentially indistinguishable when sampled every 10 minutes. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
