The influence of Commodity Trading Advisors (CTA) on the price process is explored with the help of a simple model. CTA managers are taken to be Kelly optimisers, which invest a fixed proportion of their assets in the risky asset and the remainder in a riskless asset. This requires regular adjustment of the portfolio weights as prices evolve. The CTA trading activity impacts the price change in the form of a power law. These two rules governing investment ratios and price impact are combined and lead through updating at fixed time intervals to a deterministic price dynamic. For different choices of the model parameters one gets qualitatively different dynamics. The result can be expressed as a phase diagram. Meta-CTA strategies can be devised to exploit the predictability inherent in the model dynamics by avoiding critical areas of the phase diagram or by taking a contrarian position at an opportune time.

In this paper, we study the Kelly criterion in the continuous time framework building on the work of E.O. Thorp and others. The existence of an optimal strategy is proven in a general setting and the corresponding optimal wealth process is found. A s
imple formula is provided for calculating the optimal portfolio for a set of price processes satisfying some simple conditions. Properties of the optimal investment strategy for assets governed by multiple Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes are studied. The paper ends with a short discussion of the implications of these ideas for financial markets.
We develop a general framework for applying the Kelly criterion to stock markets. By supplying an arbitrary probability distribution modeling the future price movement of a set of stocks, the Kelly fraction for investing each stock can be calculated
by inverting a matrix involving only first and second moments. The framework works for one or a portfolio of stocks and the Kelly fractions can be efficiently calculated. For a simple model of geometric Brownian motion of a single stock we show that our calculated Kelly fraction agrees with existing results. We demonstrate that the Kelly fractions can be calculated easily for other types of probabilities such as the Gaussian distribution and correlated multivariate assets.
A simple trading model based on pair pattern strategy space with holding periods is proposed. Power-law behaviors are observed for the return variance $sigma^2$, the price impact $H$ and the predictability $K$ for both models with linear and square r
oot impact functions. The sum of the traders wealth displays a positive value for the model with square root price impact function, and a qualitative explanation is given based on the observation of the conditional excess demand $<A|u>$. An evolutionary trading model is further proposed, and the elimination mechanism effectively changes the behavior of the traders highly performed in the model without evolution. The trading model with other types of traders, e.g., traders with the MGs strategies and producers, are also carefully studied.
We provide a new characterization of mean-variance hedging strategies in a general semimartingale market. The key point is the introduction of a new probability measure $P^{star}$ which turns the dynamic asset allocation problem into a myopic one. Th
e minimal martingale measure relative to $P^{star}$ coincides with the variance-optimal martingale measure relative to the original probability measure $P$.
An investor trades a safe and several risky assets with linear price impact to maximize expected utility from terminal wealth. In the limit for small impact costs, we explicitly determine the optimal policy and welfare, in a general Markovian setting
allowing for stochastic market, cost, and preference parameters. These results shed light on the general structure of the problem at hand, and also unveil close connections to optimal execution problems and to other market frictions such as proportional and fixed transaction costs.
