medium · Market Microstructure

An institutional trader is worried about 'Signaling Risk.' Why might they choose to limit their POV to 5% instead of 20% even if the 20% rate is within their risk tolerance for impact?

  1. Lower rates reduce the commission paid to the broker
  2. Higher participation rates make the order easier for HFT sniffers to detect
  3. A 5% rate guaranteed execution at the NBBO midpoint
  4. The 5% rate avoids the 'Tick Size' constraint
