Abstract

Managing high-frequency data in a limit order book (LOB) is a complex task that often exceeds the capabilities of conventional time-series forecasting models. Accurately predicting the entire multi-level LOB, beyond just the mid-price, is essential for understanding high-frequency market dynamics. However, this task is challenging due to the complex interdependencies among compound attributes within each dimension, such as order types, features, and levels. In this study, we explore advanced multidimensional sequence-to-sequence models to forecast the entire multi-level LOB, including order prices and volumes. Our main contribution is the development of a compound multivariate embedding method designed to capture the complex relationships between spatiotemporal features. Empirical results show that our method outperforms other multivariate forecasting methods, achieving the lowest forecasting error while preserving the ordinal structure of the LOB.
