Abstract

ABSTRACT We present a method to estimate price impact in order-driven markets that does not require averaging over executions or scenarios. Given order book data associated with one single execution of a sell metaorder, we estimate its contribution to price decrease during the trade. We do so by modelling the limit order book using a state-dependent Hawkes process, and by defining the price impact profile of the execution as a function of the compensator of the state-dependent Hawkes process. We apply our method to a dataset from NASDAQ, and we conclude that the scheduling of sell child orders has a bigger impact on price than their sizes.
