報告摘要：

Understanding modern market microstructure phenomena requires large amounts of data and advanced mathematical tools. In this paper, we demonstrate how a machine learning algorithm can be applied to microstructural research. We find that simple microstructure measures designed to reflect frictions in a simpler market continue to provide insights into the process of price adjustment. We find that some of these microstructure features with apparent high explanatory power can exhibit low predictive power, and vice versa. We also find that some microstructure-based measures are useful for out-of-sample prediction of various market statistics, leading to questions about the efficiency of markets. Our results are derived using 87 of the most liquid futures contracts across all asset classes.
