This group of traders buy and sell financial assets after being influenced by recent price trends. The assumption is to take advantage of an upward or downward trend in the stock prices until the trend starts to fade. Instead of looking at the fundamental value of the stock, momentum traders focus more on recent price action and price movement. If the stock price has been recently rising, a long position is established; otherwise, momentum traders will enter a short position. In the proposed model, momentum traders can submit both limit orders and market orders. For momentum traders, the ratio between the number of limit orders and market orders is fixed, which is denoted as ρ. 3.4.1 Long-term Momentum Trader (LMT) 3.4.1 Long-term Momentum Trader (LMT) 3.4.2 Short-term Momentum Trader (SMT) 3.4.2 Short-term Momentum Trader (SMT) Authors:

Similar experimental results are obtained in these settings, showing that minor changes in α value will not significantly affect the results.
