20090144187SYSTEM, METHOD AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR DETERMINING UNDISCLOSED ORDER VOLUME - Systems, methods, and computer program product for generating a report or document including a data representation reflecting a distribution of hidden trade order volume across different locations and a relative size, including average hidden order volume, volume executed against hidden orders, as a percentage of total trading volume by exchange, liquidity group and time bins. Order execution data is received for a plurality of executed trades via an electronic quotation feed associated with an electronic trading forum for trading both displayed orders and non-displayed orders. For a plurality of time periods, the location within the best bid, best offer spread, of each executed trade of the plurality of executed trades, is determined by comparing the price of each executed trade for hidden orders to quotes on a limit book for the electronic trading forum at a point in time substantially immediately before the corresponding executed trade.06-04-2009

20090125448SYSTEM, METHOD AND PROGRAM FOR AGENCY COST ESTIMATION - A method, system and computer program product for forecasting the transaction cost of a portfolio trade execution that may be applied to any given trading strategy or an optimal trading strategy that minimizes transaction costs. The system accepts user-defined input variables from customers and generates a transaction cost estimation report based on those variables. Two models are utilized: discretionary and non-discretionary. A specific transaction cost estimation and optimization is performed that model the transaction costs of a specific trade execution based on the user's trading profile and market variables.05-14-2009
