| 20090327153 | Symbolic Language For Trade Matching - A symbolic modeling language for trade matching provides techniques to describe the specialized operations of a match engine in a form that can be understood by business analysts and readily translated into program code and test cases by developers and testers. Associated techniques for calculating implied markets and testing can expedite match engine development, testing and maintenance. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100174633 | Determination of Implied Orders in a Trade Matching System - A computer implemented method for determining implied orders in an electronic trading system is provided. The method comprises receiving a first set of one or more real orders, wherein the orders are not tradable against each other. One or more implied orders are identified within the first set of real orders. Market data corresponding to the implied orders can also be identified. At least one additional order is received and the tradability of the additional order is determined against the real or implied orders within the first set of real orders. A resting set of orders is determined from those real and implied orders within the first set of orders not affected by the tradability of the additional order. Implied orders are determined from within the set of resting orders. | 07-08-2010 |
| 20110055067 | UTILIZING A TRIGGER ORDER WITH MULTIPLE COUNTERPARTIES IN IMPLIED MARKET TRADING - An electronic trading system utilizes a Match Engine that receives orders, stores them internally, calculates tradeable combinations and advertises the availability of real and implied orders in the form of market data. Calculating tradeable combinations or cycles for certain strategies becomes complex. Strategies that utilize legs having different volume ratios may form tradeable combinations that will traverse a trigger order more than one time. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110066536 | RATIO SPREADS FOR CONTRACTS OF DIFFERENT SIZES IN IMPLIED MARKET TRADING - A method for matching orders is provided. The method includes receiving a first order for a product, the first order specifying a first volume, receiving a second order for the product, the second order specifying a second volume, wherein the first volume is different than the second volume, generating an implied order based on a ratio spread defined between the first order and the second order, and matching a third order with the implied order. | 03-17-2011 |
| 20110066537 | IMPLIED VOLUME ANALYZER - A volume analyzer is provided. The volume analyzer includes an input, a processor, and an output. The input is operable to receive market data and a calculation policy. The processor is coupled with the input. The processor is operable to identify an available implied pattern based on the market data and the calculation policy. The available implied pattern has not been calculated by a match engine. The output is coupled with the processor. The processor is operable to provide the available implied pattern to the output. | 03-17-2011 |
| 20110066568 | TRANSFORMATION OF A MULTI-LEG SECURITY DEFINITION FOR CALCULATION OF IMPLIED ORDERS IN AN ELECTRONIC TRADING SYSTEM - An electronic trading system utilizes a Match Engine that receives orders, stores them internally, calculates tradable combinations and advertises the availability of real and implied orders in the form of market data. New tradable items defined as combinations of other tradable items may be included in the calculation of tradable combinations. A technique is disclosed for transforming a combination or strategy contract with an arbitrary number of buy and sell legs with an arbitrary volume ratio for each leg into a form that can be used for rapid implied order calculations. | 03-17-2011 |
| 20110087579 | LEG PRICER - An electronic trading system utilizes a Match Engine that receives orders, stores them internally, calculates tradable combinations and advertises the availability of real and implied orders in the form of market data. The tradable combinations may include spread orders where one leg of the spread has a different tick size than the other or where the tick of the spread contract is different from the tick size in one or both legs. A method and system for calculating on-tick leg prices in an equitable and predictable manner is provided. | 04-14-2011 |
