    Abstract

    We propose a new set of stylized facts quantifying the structure of financial
    markets. The key idea is to study the combined structure of both investment
    strategies and prices in order to open a qualitatively new level of
    understanding of financial and economic markets. We study the detailed order
    flow on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange of China for the whole year of 2003.

    Abstract

    There is convincing evidence showing that the probability distributions of
    stock returns in mature markets exhibit power-law tails and both the positive
    and negative tails conform to the inverse cubic law. It supports the
    possibility that the tail exponents are universal at least for mature markets
    in the sense that they do not depend on stock market, industry sector, and
    market capitalization. We investigate the distributions of one-minute intraday
    returns of all the A-share stocks traded in the Chinese stock market, which is
    the largest emerging market in the world.

    Abstract

    We study the dynamics of order flows around large intraday price changes
    using ultra-high-frequency data from the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. We find a
    significant reversal of price for both intraday price decreases and increases
    with a permanent price impact. The volatility, the volume of different types of
    orders, the bid-ask spread, and the volume imbalance increase before the
    extreme events and decay slowly as a power law, which forms a well-established
    peak.
