| Maatstaf | Largest quintile | Tweede | Derde |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quoted spread | -0.53, t = -3.23 | -0.42, t = -2.21 | -0.43, t = -1.44, not significant |
| Effectieve spread | -0.18, t = -2.67 | -0.32, t = -2.23 | -0.35, t = -1.56, not significant |
| Five minute realised spread | +0.35, t = 3.52 | +0.76, t = 3.97 | +1.03, t = 2.06 |
| Five minute adverse selection | -0.53, t = -3.56 | -1.07, t = -4.08 | -1.39, t = -2.06 |
Instrumental variable coefficients in basis points per unit of algorithmic trading, where a unit is 100 dollars of volume per electronic message, with the sign flipped so that positive means more messages per dollar traded. 1,082 US stocks, daily, 2 December 2002 to 31 July 2003, identified by the staggered rollout of automatic quoting from 29 January to 27 May 2003, with stock and day fixed effects. First stage F statistics run from 5.88 to 7.32, which is weak instrument territory and worth flagging.
Using a staggered exchange upgrade as an instrument, algorithmic trading narrows the largest quintile's quoted spread by 2.41 basis points on a mean of 5.19. The realised spread rises at the same time, so the intermediary captures more per trade.
