“…Naturally, the magnitude of market impact and, consequently, the loss due to adverse price movements, depend not only on the size of trades, but also on the time windows between the transactions. For a detailed discussion of the issues related to market impact, see, among others, Chan and Lakonishok (1995), Kein and Madhavan (1995), Kraus and Stoll (1972). Some of the latest developments on the optimal transaction implementation and optimal trading policies are reflected in papers by Bertsimas and Lo (1998), Bertsimas, Lo, and Hummel (1999), Rickard and Torre (1999), Almgren and Chriss (2000), and Almgren (2003).…”
