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...

.... Indeed, it is well established that pursuing aggressively strategic behavior can lead to pitfalls in uncertain environments [Sandholm and Ygge, 1997; Wellman and Hu, 1998] Alternatively, some have used tournaments as a framework for developing and evaluating candidate agent...

...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...
