hard · Market Microstructure spread-econ

A buyer executes at 100.04 (M_t = 100.00). The realized spread is -0.04. Interpret the relationship between effective spread and adverse selection.

  1. There was no adverse selection, since the realized spread came out negative.
  2. The effective spread is exactly twice the adverse selection component, giving 0.04 here.
  3. The adverse selection component equals the effective spread, leaving a realized spread of zero.
  4. The adverse selection component (0.12) is 1.5 times the effective spread (0.08).
