Description
Summary:Market micro-structure variables provide a novel approach to foreign exchange price determination. More precisely, the order flow has been recognised in literature as a main driver of short-term price dynamics in foreign exchange markets. I present an Artificial Neural Network to improve the estimation of order flow as an "aggreagtor" of private information. The result yields a significant improvement into a Vector Autoregression model prediction, in terms of the chosen metric, that could imply an empirical backing to the order flow as an "aggregator" of private information theory.
