A system for managing trading orders comprises a memory operable to store a first trading order for a particular trading product, wherein the first trading order comprises a display portion and a reserve portion and is received from a first trader. The memory is further operable to store a second trading order for the particular trading product, wherein the second trading order comprises a display portion and a reserve portion and the second trading order is received from a second trader after the first trading order. The system further comprises a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and operable to receive from a counterparty trader a counterorder for the trading product. The processor is further operable to use the counterorder to fill the display portion of the first trading order. The processor is further operable to use the counterorder to fill the display portion of the second trading order. After filling the display portion of the second trading order, the processor is further operable to exclusively offer at least a portion of the counterorder to the first trader for a configurable period of time.

A system for managing trading orders comprises a memory operable to store a trade credit associated with a trader. The system further comprises a processor operable to receive a trading order from the trader and determine the trade credit associated with the trader. If the received trading order is a passive trading order, the processor is further operable to increase the trade credit and submit the received trading order for execution. If the received trading order is an aggressive trading order, the processor is further operable to calculate a decrease of the trade credit. If subtracting the calculated decrease from the trade credit would not cause the trade credit to be less than a configurable threshold, the processor is further operable to submit the received trading order for execution and subtract the calculated decrease from the trade credit. If subtracting the calculated decrease from the trade credit would cause the trade credit to be less than the configurable threshold, the processor is further operable to prevent the execution of the received trading order.

A system for managing trading orders comprises a memory operable to store a trader list that is associated with a first trader and that designates one or more other traders. The system further comprises a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and operable to receive a trading order from the first trader, wherein the trading order is for an order quantity of a first trading product. The processor is further operable to determine a first portion and a second portion of the order quantity. The processor is further operable to disclose the first portion of the order quantity to a plurality of traders. If a configurable condition is satisfied, the processor is further operable to disclose the second portion of the order quantity to one or more traders that are not designated by the trader list and to prevent the disclosure of the second portion of the order quantity to the one or more designated traders from the trader list.

Systems and methods of trading items on an electronic trading system according to the invention are provided. The embodiments of the invention are based at least in part on a new order type. The new order type is a modification of a conventional good-until bettered order type. A good-until-bettered bid/offer is received along with instructions that specify a good-until-bettered increment value and/or duration. The good-until-bettered order is maintained in the electronic trading system until a bid/offer that is better by the specified plurality of standard trading increments is received by the electronic trading system and/or remains in the system for the good-until-bettered duration.

An apparatus and procedures for percutaneous placement of surgical implants and instruments such as, for example, screws, rods, wires and plates into various body parts using image guided surgery. An apparatus for use with a surgical navigation system, an attaching device rigidly connected to a body part, such as the spinous process of a vertebrae, with an identification superstructure rigidly but removably connected to the attaching device. This identification superstructure, for example, is a reference arc and fiducial array which accomplishes the function of identifying the location of the superstructure, and, therefore, the body part to which it is fixed, during imaging by CAT scan or MRI, and later during medical procedures.

Methods and instrumentation for surgical procedures relating to preparation of vertebral bodies and a disc space for insertion of spinal implants is disclosed. One instrument is a shim having a blade and a shaft having a first end connected with the blade. The blade is inserted into a distracted disc space to maintain distraction during subsequent procedures. Another instrument is a driver for driving the blade of the shim into the distracted disc space. Various methods contemplate the use of these instruments to maintain disc space distraction during disc space preparation for receiving an implant.

Laterally expanding vertebral spacer devices are provided for repairing damaged vertebral discs. The vertebral spacer devices maintain the height of a distracted vertebral disc space while providing stability to the spine. In one form of the invention, a vertebral spacer device is provided with a first arm movably coupled to a second arm. The first and second arms are laterally expandable from a first width for insertion into the disc space to a second width after insertion into the disc space. The first and second arms also define a cavity therebetween for placement of bone growth material.
