Abstract:
Some embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for displaying market data which are operatively configured to alternate the presentation of the market data between multiple formats responsive to a user selection, wherein at least one of the formats is condensed by converting numerical values to graphical or visual representations thereof which reduces the amount of cognitive workload required to review, detect, and monitor the market data, among other things, while also continuing to convey useful information that facilitates the execution of trades in tradable objects.
Abstract:
A system and method are provided for prioritized automated trading. One example method may include receiving a plurality of parameters, where each parameter has an order-related action associated with a trading strategy, and then detecting one or more events that trigger a plurality of order related actions. The method then includes determining priority levels in relation to a plurality of triggered order-related actions using at least one priority rule, and processing the plurality of triggered order-related action in an order associated with the determined priority levels.
Abstract:
A data feed is monitored to determine whether a condition is satisfied. If the condition is satisfied, an alert is initiated to attract a user's attention. Thereafter, playback mode is entered causing the example system to playback a short period of time-compressed data that occurred just prior to the event occurring to set context for the user. Once the playback signal has caught up with the real-time data feed, the data is output at normal levels. Other configurations, which are described herein, are also possible.
Abstract:
Software at a trading station receives a data feed from an electronic exchange and computes an effective bid price and/or an effective ask price based on a particular quantity to trade. Then, the effective bid price and/or effective ask prices are indicated to the user. An effective bid price is an average price at which a quantity could be sold based on current market conditions. An effective ask price is an average price at which a quantity could be bought based on current market conditions. Depending on the available quantities in the market, the effective prices may represent spreads different from the actual spread of the inside market. Additionally, a derivative of price, such as yield, may be used to compute other types of effective bid and/or ask information.
Abstract:
A system, method, and non-transitory computer-readable information recording medium displays information to a user. Market data related to a plurality of tradeable objects is received from an exchange at a trading device. The display of market data related to each tradeable object is separately controlled. If the user is not paying attention to the market data of a particular tradeable object, then the dissemination of the market data for that tradeable object may be temporarily stopped until the user starts paying attention to that tradeable object.
Abstract:
The present embodiments relate to charting multiple markets. In some embodiments, charting multiple markets may include receiving market data for a plurality of tradeable objects. The plurality of tradeable objects may include an anchor object and at least one non-anchor object. The market data may include anchor object price data for the anchor object and non-anchor price data for the at least one non-anchor object. The non-anchor object price data may be converted based on the anchor object price data such that converted non-anchor object price data has a price scale of the anchor object price data. The anchor object price data and the non-anchor object price data may be displayed along a normalized price axis.
Abstract:
Various embodiments disclosed herein relate to order entry. In the electronic trading process, order entry involves setting one or more order entry parameters, sending one or more order entry parameters, or both setting and sending one or more order entry parameters. As will be described in more detail below, various order entry actions, such as moving a cursor across an order entry line, moving a cursor into an order entry region, pressing an order entry button, or performing a gesture, may be used to trigger the setting, sending, or both setting and sending of one or more order entry parameters. At least some embodiments relate to enabling an order entry action before the order entry action is able to set, send, or both set and send one or more order entry parameters.

Abstract:
Some embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for displaying market data for a tradable object which are configured to generate order entry fields for display responsive to user input wherein the generated fields are automatically associated with a price for the tradable object to facilitate the timely placement of a trade.
