Abstract
This paper extends previous research performed with the SHIFT financial market simulation platform. In our previous work, we show how this order-driven, distributed asynchronous, and multi-asset simulated environment is capable of reproducing known stylized facts of real continuous double auction financial markets. Using the platform, we study a pricing mechanism based on frequent batch auctions (FBA) proposed by a group of researchers from University of Chicago. We demonstrate our simulator’s capability as an environment to experiment with potential rule changes. We present the first side-by-side comparison of frequent batch auctions with a continuous double auction. We show that FBA is superior in terms of market quality measures but we also discover a potential problem in the technical implementation of FBA.
