Repurposing Deep Limit Order Book Forecasting for Scenario-Conditioned Market Impact Modeling

要旨

Deep Limit Order Book forecasting models capture nonlinear market dynamics, but their ability to quantify the effects of counterfactual order book messages has not been systematically validated. We introduce a model-agnostic framework that compares a trained forecaster's predictive distributions before and after injecting mechanically valid counterfactual messages, defining short-horizon model-implied market impact. A Transformer-based forecaster recovered scenario rankings with a Spearman correlation of 0.99 and 97.2% directional agreement with realized historical outcomes among non-neutral scenarios. Observation-level analysis further showed that estimated impacts captured incremental sequence-dependent variation beyond scenario identity and the pre-event forecast. These results provide evidence that pretrained Limit Order Book forecasters can be repurposed for scenario-conditioned response modeling without retraining.
