problem Understanding the long-lasting effects of trading activity on stock prices.
method Examined two different price response implementations for NASDAQ Trades and Quotes (TAQ) data.
result Results are qualitatively the same for two different time scale definitions, but response can vary by up to a factor of two.

In our empirical study, we examine the price of liquid stocks after experiencing a large intraday price change using data from the NYSE and the NASDAQ. We find significant reversal for both intraday price decreases and increases. The results are stable against varying parameters. While on the NYSE the large widening of…
