Abstract:We reconsider the problem of optimal trading in the presence of linear and quadratic (market impact) costs for arbitrary linear costs but in the limit where quadratic costs are small. Using matched asymptotic expansion techniques, we find that the trading speed vanishes inside a band that is narrower in the presence of market impact by an amount that scales as a cube root of the market impact parameter. Outside the band we find three regimes: a small boundary layer where the velocity vanishes linearly with the… Show more
