  • An Introduction to High-Frequency Finance

    by Michel Dacorogna, Ulrich A. Muller, Olivier Pictet, Richard Olsen, Ramazan Gençay ...

Data vendors such as Reuters transmit more than 275,000 prices per day for foreign exchange spot rates alone. Thus, high-frequency data can be a fundamental object of study, as traders make decisions by observing high-frequency or tick-by-tick data. Yet ... Read more
