Abstract
A stylized phenomenological model for the continuous double auction is introduced. This model is equivalent to two uncoupled M/M/1 queues. The conditions for statistical equilibrium (ergodicity) are derived. The results of Monte Carlo simulations are presented on the behaviour of price differences and log-returns.
