Oft-cited causes of mini-flash crashes include human errors, endogenous feedback loops and the nature of modern liquidity provision. We develop a mathematical model which captures aspects of these explanations. Empirical features of recent mini-flash crashes are present in our framework. For example, there are periods when no such events will occur. If they do, even just before their onset, market participants may not know with certainty that a disruption will unfold. Our mini-flash crashes can materialize in both low and high trading volume environments and may be accompanied by a partial synchronization in order submission. Instead of adopting a classically-inspired equilibrium approach, we borrow ideas from the optimal execution literature. Each of our agents begins with beliefs about how his own trades impact prices and how prices would move in his absence. They, along with other market participants, then submit orders which are executed at a common venue. Naturally, this leads us to explicitly distinguish between how prices actually evolve and our agents’ opinions. In particular, every agent’s beliefs will be expressly incorrect.

In this paper we present a non-conventional statistical arbitrage technique based in varying the number of standard deviations used to carry the trading strategy. We will show how values of 1 and 1,2 in the standard deviation provide better results that the classic strategy of Gatev et al (2006). An empirical application is performance using data of the FST100 index during the period 2010 to June 2019.

This study is event study that was conduct to examine the differences of abnormal return, trading volume, trading frequency and bid-ask spread before and after the events of share split. The object of this research is the companies that did share split and listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2008 - 2015. The samples are 30 companies chosen by purposive sampling method. The criteria are the company did not do corporate action right issue, pre-emptive rights, a share dividend and bonus shares in the same year with share split. Event window used in this study was 30 days consisting of 15 days before and 15 days after the share split. Data analysis technique begins with a test of normality using Kolmogorov – Smirnov and transform for unnormally distributed data. Then, test of hypothesis using Paired t – test to compare the differences before and after share split. The results of this study showed that volume trading activity and trading frequency had significant differences before and after the share split. While, variable abnormal return and bid-ask spread had not significant differences before and after the share split. Keywords: Abnormal return, bid-ask spread, share split, trading frequency, trading volume.
