Abstract
We study the immediate price impact of a single trade executed in the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX). By ordering the top 300 stocks on the ASX in order of their free float market capitalization, a clear pattern emerges, with higher cap stocks experiencing lower price impact than lower cap stocks for the same traded volume. We investigate this relationship in detail, and show that the price impact and liquidity scale as a power of the market capitalization. This relationship is used to obtain a single market impact curve which shows average price shift as a function of volume traded. We obtain similar results for every year from 2001 to 2004.

Inferring Trade Direction from Intraday Data

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate alternative methods for classifying individual trades as market buy or market sell orders using intraday trade and quote data and identify two serious potential problems with this method, namely, that quotes are often recorded ahead of the trade that triggered them and that trades inside the spread are not readily classifiable.
