20150026033 | EFFICIENT SELF-MATCH PREVENTION IN AN ELECTRONIC MATCH ENGINE - Protections against self-matching trade orders are disclosed which maximize liquidity/efficiency by reducing/minimizing unnecessary cancelations and/or resubmissions.

Where the incoming order is not fully satisfied, only self-matching counter orders are identified or the return of held orders would result in a crossed order book, a trader may include instructions with the incoming order directing the system to cancel the self-matching resting orders, cancel the incoming order, decrementing the quantity of the larger of the incoming and self-matching resting orders by the quantity of the smaller thereof, or take some other action. | 01-22-2015 |
