P the most difficult challenge in understanding social phenomena is their intractably complex nature. For much of the 20th century social scientists attempted to unravel the complexities of the social realm by emulating the methodologies of the natural sciences. Although these approaches enhanced social science research, they have fallen short of capturing emergent behavior and self-organizatio...

Emergent Phenomena in a Foreign Exchange Market: Analysis based on an Artificial Market Approach

In this study we propose an artificial market approach, which is a new agent-based approach to foreign exchange market studies. Using this approach, emergent phenomena of markets were explained. This approach consists of fieldwork, construction of a multi-agent model, and computer simulation of a market. The simulation results show that the emergent phenomena can be explained by a phase transit...

An Agent-Based Model of Dealership Markets

This paper describes an agent-based model of financial markets with monopolistic or competitive market-makers and analyzes some of the emergent properties of these markets, including time series properties. The artificial markets we discuss utilize models of “informed” trading agents who decide to trade based on received signals of the true or fundamental value of the stock, and “uninformed” tr...
