Leyendo un post de Quantivity llamado Paradox of Informedness, me cruce con el siguiente paper:

Fluctuations and Response in Financial Markets: The Subtle Nature of ‘Random’ Price Changes

Abstract:
Using Trades and Quotes data from the Paris stock market, we show that the random walk nature of traded prices results from a very delicate interplay between two opposite tendencies: strongly correlated market orders that lead to super-diffusion (or persistence), and mean reverting limit orders that lead to sub-diffusion (or anti-persistence). We define and study a model where the price, at any instant, is the result of the impact of all past trades, mediated by a non constant ‘propagator’ in time that describes the response of the market to a single trade. Within this model, the market is shown to be, in a precise sense, at a critical point, where the price is purely diffusive and the average response function almost constant. We find empirically, and discuss theoretically, a fluctuation-response relation. We discuss the information content of each trade, and find that it is on average very small.
