Abstract: In computational markets utilizing algorithms
that establish a market equilibrium (general
equilibrium), competitive behavior is usually assumed:
each agent makes its demand (supply)
decisions so as to maximize its utility (profit)
assuming that it has no impact on market
prices. However, there is a potential gain from
strategic behavior (via speculating about others)
because an agent does affect the market
prices, which affect the supply/demand decisions
of others, which again affect the... (Update)

...demand. If the market only clears once, there is little room for speculative behavior among the agents, as has been demonstrated recently [34]. However, if the market clears several times or if the bidding length is randomized, there is again room for time based speculation, and...
