Zusammenfassung:Modeling intraday financial markets by means of agent based models requires an additional building block which reflects the order execu- tion, i.e. the trading process. Current implementations rely only on stochastic placement strategies, ranging from total randomness to adding some bud- get constraints. This contribution addresses the issue of order placement for low-tech traders, by replacing the zero-intelligence assumption with a microtrading-based approach. The results show that the power-law decaying relative price distribution of off-spread limit orders and the concave shape of the overall market price impact can be replicated when rational order submission strategies are used.
