Actually there are lots of discrete auctions in the electronic trading world. For instance the S&P futures contracts trade this way before the open and depending on your perspective they have more "shenanigans" being played by HFT players. Not less. There are 2 major issues that no one brings up when they say "simply add discrete auctions". A) what happens when there are more participants on 1 side of a price than on the other, what is the tie breaker after price? B) How does this solve the distributed systems problem of multiple exchanges trading at the same time? |
