Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper studies intraday market quality for currency pairs with very different trading characteristics, the Euro-U.S. dollar and the Canadian dollar-U.S. dollar. Two sets of tests—the first based on the ratio of long term to short term variances, and the second based on information spillovers—provide consistent conclusions regarding market quality. The variance ratio analysis shows that market quality is highest for the Euro during European trading and lowest during Asian trading. For the Canadian dollar, market quality is highest during North American trading and lowest during Asian trading. Analysis of information spillovers shows that innovations in returns and volatility for the more heavily-traded Euro predict returns and volatility for the Canadian dollar during Asian and European trading, but innovations for the dollar have predictive power for the Euro during North American trading. Our results suggest that foreign exchange market quality is high, not always when quoting and trading activity are heavy but rather, and somewhat unexpectedly, when activity is not only high, but also geographically focused and concentrated

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
