Optimal position targeting with stochastic linear-quadratic costs
@article{Ankirchner2015OptimalPT, title={Optimal position targeting with stochastic linear-quadratic costs}, author={Stefan Ankirchner and Thomas Kruse}, journal={Banach Center Publications}, year={2015}, volume={104}, pages={9-24} }
We consider the dynamic control problem of attaining a target position at a finite time T , while minimizing a linear-quadratic cost functional depending on the position and speed. We assume that the coefficients of the linearquadratic cost functional are stochastic processes adapted to a Brownian filtration. We provide a probabilistic solution in terms of two coupled backward stochastic differential equations possessing a singularity at the terminal time T . We verify optimality of the…

The problem of optimal trading in illiquid markets is addressed when the deviations from a given stochastic target function describing, for instance, external aggregate client flow are penalized, and it is shown that the optimal control can be characterized via buy, sell, and no-trade regions.
