This implies that the signs of future orders are quite predictable from the signs of past orde…

We conclude from an analysis of high resolution NYSE data that the distribution of the traded value fif_i (or volume) has a finite variance σiσ_i for the very large majority of stocks ii, and the distribution itself is non-universal across stocks.
