Non-constant rates and over-diffusive prices in a simple model of limit order markets

Abstract

Using simple particle models of limit order markets, we argue that the mid-term over-diffusive price behaviour is due to the variability of market order and limit order rates. Several rules for rate changes are considered. We obtain analytical results for bid-ask spread properties, Hurst plots and price increment correlation functions.
