Optimal market making with persistent order flow

Abstract

\noindent We address the issue of market making on electronic markets when taking into account the clustering and long memory properties of market order flows. We consider a market model with one market maker and order flows driven by general Hawkes processes. We formulate the market maker's objective as a stochastic control problem. We characterize an optimal control by proving existence and uniqueness of a viscosity solution to the associated Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. Finally we propose a fully consistent numerical method allowing to implement this optimal strategy in practice.
