Human beings like to believe they are in control of their
destiny. This ubiquitous trait seems to increase motivation and persistence,
and is probably evolutionarily adaptive [J.D. Taylor, S.E. Brown, Psych. Bull. 103, 193 (1988); A. Bandura,
Self-efficacy: the exercise of control (WH Freeman, New
York, 1997)]. But how good really is our
ability to control? How successful is our track record in these areas? There
is little understanding of when and under what circumstances we may
over-estimate [E. Langer, J. Pers. Soc. Psych. 7, 185 (1975)] or even lose our ability to control and optimize outcomes,
especially when they are the result of aggregations of individual
optimization processes. Here, we demonstrate analytically using the theory
of Markov Chains and by numerical simulations in two classes of games, the
Time-Horizon Minority Game [M.L. Hart, P. Jefferies, N.F. Johnson, Phys. A 311, 275 (2002)] and the Parrondo Game
[J.M.R. Parrondo, G.P. Harmer, D. Abbott, Phys. Rev. Lett.
85, 5226 (2000); J.M.R. Parrondo, How to cheat a bad mathematician (ISI, Italy, 1996)], that agents
who optimize their strategy based on past information may actually perform
worse than non-optimizing agents. In other words, low-entropy (more
informative) strategies under-perform high-entropy (or random) strategies.
This provides a precise definition of the “illusion of control” in certain
set-ups a priori defined to emphasize the importance of optimization.

Traders who instantly react to changes in the financial market and place orders in milliseconds are called high-frequency traders (HFTs). HFTs have recently become more prevalent and attracting attention in the study of market microstructures. In this study, we used data to track the order history of individual HFTs in the USD/JPY forex market to reveal how individual HFTs interact with the order book and what strategies they use to place their limit orders. Specifically, we introduced an 8-dimensional multivariate Hawkes process that included the excitations due to the occurrence of limit orders, cancel orders, and executions in the order book change, and performed maximum likelihood estimations of the limit order processes for 134 HFTs. As a result, we found that the limit order generation processes of 104 of the 134 HFTs were modeled by a multivariate Hawkes process. In this analysis of the EBS market, the HFTs whose strategies were modeled by the Hawkes process were categorized into three groups according to their excitation mechanisms: (1) those excited by executions; (2) those that were excited by the occurrences or cancellations of limit orders; and (3) those that were excited by their own orders. 相似文献

We explore recent contributions to research in Econophysics, switching between Macroscopic complexity and microscopic modelling, showing how each leads to the other and detailing the everyday applicability of both approaches and the tools they help develop. Over the past decades, the world underwent several major crises, leading to significant increase in interdependence and, thus, complexity. We show here that from the perspective of network science, these processes become more understandable and, to some extent, also controllable. 相似文献

We investigate scaling and memory effects in return intervals between price volatilities above a certain threshold q for the
Japanese stock market using daily and intraday data sets. We find that the distribution of return intervals can be approximated
by a scaling function that depends only on the ratio between the return interval τ and its mean 〈τ〉. We also find memory effects
such that a large (or small) return interval follows a large (or small) interval by investigating the conditional distribution
and mean return interval. The results are similar to previous studies of other markets and indicate that similar statistical
features appear in different financial markets. We also compare our results between the period before and after the big crash
at the end of 1989. We find that scaling and memory effects of the return intervals show similar features although the statistical
properties of the returns are different. 相似文献

Avalanches, or Avalanche-like, events are often
observed in the dynamical behaviour of many complex systems which
span from solar flaring to the Earth's crust dynamics and from
traffic flows to financial markets. Self-organized criticality
(SOC) is one of the most popular theories able to explain this
intermittent charge/discharge behaviour. Despite a large amount of
theoretical work, empirical tests for SOC are still in their
infancy. In the present paper we address the common problem of
revealing SOC from a simple time series without having much
information about the underlying system. As a working example we
use a modified version of the multifractal random walk originally
proposed as a model for the stock market dynamics. The study
reveals, despite the lack of the typical ingredients of SOC, an
avalanche-like dynamics similar to that of many physical systems.
While, on one hand, the results confirm the relevance of cascade
models in representing turbulent-like phenomena, on the other,
they also raise the question about the current state of
reliability of SOC inference from time series analysis. 相似文献

Evolving networks with a constant number of edges may be
modelled using a rewiring process. These models are used to
describe many real-world processes including the evolution of
cultural artifacts such as family names, the evolution of gene
variations, and the popularity of strategies in simple
econophysics models such as the minority game. The model is
closely related to Urn models used for glasses, quantum gravity
and wealth distributions. The full mean field equation for the
degree distribution is found and its exact solution and generating
solution are given. 相似文献

A phenomenological investigation of the endogenous and
exogenous dynamics in the fluctuations of capital fluxes is carried
out on the Chinese stock market using mean-variance analysis,
fluctuation analysis, and their generalizations to higher orders.
Non-universal dynamics have been found not only in the scaling
exponent α, which is different from the universal values 1/2
and 1, but also in the distributions of the ratio η=
σexo / σendo of individual stocks. Both
the scaling exponent α of fluctuations and the Hurst exponent
Hi increase in logarithmic form with the time scale Δt
and the mean traded value per minute 〈fi 〉,
respectively. We find that the scaling exponent αendo
of the endogenous fluctuations is independent of the time scale.
Multiscaling and multifractal features are observed in the data as
well. However, the inhomogeneous impact model is not verified. 相似文献

A new approach is presented to describe the change in the statistics of the log return distribution of financial data as a
function of the timescale. To this purpose a measure is introduced, which quantifies the distance of a considered distribution
to a reference distribution. The existence of a small timescale regime is demonstrated, which exhibits different properties
compared to the normal timescale regime for timescales larger than one minute. This regime seems to be universal for individual
stocks. It is shown that the existence of this small timescale regime is not dependent on the special choice of the distance
measure or the reference distribution. These findings have important implications for risk analysis, in particular for the
probability of extreme events. 相似文献

Open dynamic behaviour of financial markets with internal
interactions between agents and with external “fields” from other systems
are investigated using the approach of Grossman and Stiglitz for inefficient
markets, and Keynes for interference of the market using physics of finance
(referred to hereafter as phynance). The simulation results indicate that
the NYSE data analyzed in Plerou, V. et al., Nature 421, 130 (2003) can be fitted
by an equation of order parameter Φ and local deviation R of type:
-(R+0.03) Φ+ 0.6 Φ3 + 0.02 = 0, which is shown to be in
remarkable agreement with Plerou's data. 相似文献
