Zusammenfassung: 
The recent emergence of COVID-19 and the subsequent short-selling restriction (SSR) imposed on some equity markets provide us with a unique framework to analyze the effects of this kind of measure on market quality in the context of increasingly automated equity markets. We contribute to the literature by analyzing the microstructure and quality parameters of the Spanish equity market during COVID-19 and SSR. We study four subperiods, namely pre-crisis, turmoil, SSR, and first de-escalation periods, by means of a tick-by-tick dataset and the complete limit order book (LOB). We observe the following impact of the SSR on the constituents of IBEX 35: (1) the SSR did comply partially with its aim at an intraday level regarding volatility, but liquidity was reduced; (2) liquidity deterioration affected more the sell than the buy side of the LOB; (3) high-frequency activity (HFT) diminished during SSR, reinforcing volatility; (4) negative effects on liquidity and HFT diminished and disappeared as the ban was lifted; (5) HFT unidirectionally Granger causes 1 min realized volatility while the natural logarithm of the slope of the LOB bidirectionally Granger causes 1 min realized volatility.
