The conference presentation focused on recent results on dynamic trading patterns in limit order markets, primarily foreign exchange and money markets.

I discuss some simple microfoundations for Liquidity Deflation, a concept put forward in Calvo (2016 a and b), which can give rise to liquidity trap conditions under perfectly flexible prices. Unlike in Keynes (1936), this is a Supply Side Liquidity Trap. Moreover, modeling the policy interest rate as the rate of return on money-like instruments à la Calvo and Végh (1995), denoted by i!, I show...

This paper proposes a new framework which captures the systemic nature of funding liquidity risk. Using this framework we develop a set of indicators which measure different aspects of the systemic funding liquidity risk in the interbank foreign currency lending market: (i) systemic funding liquidity needs, (ii) systemic vulnerability, (iii) systemic importance and (iv) systemic liquidity short...

We estimate the probability of informed trading (Pi) in an order-driven stock market and perform a comprehensive analysis on the interrelations among Pi and three common performance indicators: liquidity, volatility, and efficiency. We find that uninformed traders exhibit price chasing behavior, and price volatility attracts uninformed traders. Using 3SLS which considers the endogeneity of Pi a...
