RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Approaching Venue Analysis JF The Journal of Trading FD Institutional Investor Journals SP 73 OP 75 DO 10.3905/jot.2017.12.1.073 VO 12 IS 1 A1 Marie Konstance YR 2016 UL https://pm-research.com/content/12/1/73.abstract AB Many U.S. equity traders underestimate the value of venue analysis and assume that any issues will appear in their current TCA results.
