US 8131626 B2Abstract
A method for providing a customizable trading display of market instrument data includes selecting a subset from a plurality of quadrants, with each quadrant associated with one benchmark instrument and each benchmark instrument associated with one or more non-benchmark instruments. Market data is automatically retrieved for the instruments associated with each selected quadrant. A customizable trading display is generated, with the display comprising the subset of quadrants in a selectable layout and each quadrant presenting the associated market data.
This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/715,081 filed Nov. 17, 2003, entitled �Customizable Trading Display Of Market Data,� currently pending.
This disclosure provides a system and method for providing a customizable trading display of market data. In one embodiment, the method includes selecting a subset from a plurality of quadrants, with each quadrant associated with one benchmark instrument and each benchmark instrument associated with one or more non-benchmark instruments. Market data is automatically retrieved for the instruments associated with each selected quadrant. A customizable trading display is generated, with the display comprising the subset of quadrants in a selectable layout and each quadrant presenting the associated market data.
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating a trading system 100 including one or more customizable trading displays 116 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. At a high level, trading system 100 is a client/server environment comprising at least one client 102, a server 104, and one or more data providers 106, but may also be a standard computing environment or any other suitable environment. In general, trading system 100 comprises a system for providing a trader, or other user of client 102, with the ability to customize trading display 116 of market data 118, normally received from one data provider 106 and stored in a central repository 110 on server 104. For example, trading system 100 may comprise a market system that compiles U.S. Treasury benchmark and non-benchmark instrument data, automatically presents the compiled instrument data to a trader via customizable display 116, and dynamically processes any appropriate customization of trading display 116 based on requests from the trader. Generally, the benchmark instrument is the most recently auctioned issue for one of the maturities. The term �automatically,� as used herein, generally means that the appropriate processing is substantially performed by at least part of trading system 100. It should be understood that �automatically� further contemplates any suitable user or trader interaction with system 100 without departing from the scope of this disclosure. The term �dynamically,� as used herein, generally means that certain processing is determined, at least in part, at run-time based on one or more variables.
