An Algorithmic Quoting Policy is a defined set of rules and parameters dictating how an automated system generates and updates bid and ask prices for cryptocurrency assets within a request-for-quote (RFQ) or order book environment. This policy governs the market-making behavior of the system and its resultant risk exposure.
Mechanism
The policy logic receives real-time market data, internal inventory levels, pre-established risk limits, and target profitability objectives. It then computes optimal quote prices and sizes using quantitative models, often factoring in volatility, order book depth, and perceived informational asymmetry, before submitting these quotes to the trading venue.
Methodology
Implementation requires a systematic approach to parameter calibration, extensive scenario testing, and live performance monitoring. This includes establishing stringent risk controls, such as maximum spread limits and capital allocation ceilings, regularly backtesting the policy’s efficacy under diverse market conditions, and employing feedback mechanisms for adaptive rule adjustments based on execution quality and inventory risk.
