Patent ID: 8082203

Claim:
A method for displaying market data associated with a tradeable object being traded electronically on an electronic exchange, comprising: receiving by a computing device market information for a tradeable object from an electronic exchange, the market information comprising a last traded price and an inside market with a highest bid price and a lowest ask price currently available for the tradeable object; dynamically computing by the computing device a highest traded price for a defined time period based on the last traded price for the tradeable object; dynamically computing by the computing device a lowest traded price for the defined time period based on the last traded price for the tradeable object; displaying by the computing device a market depth indicator in relation to a first value axis in a market overview interface, the market depth indicator corresponding to a plurality of market depth prices for the tradeable object, wherein the first value axis is bounded by the highest traded price and the lowest traded price for the tradeable object; displaying by the computing device a market depth interface in relation to the market overview interface, the market depth interface displaying the plurality of market depth prices and a plurality of areas for displaying at least a bid quantity indicator at the highest bid price and an ask quantity indicator at the lowest ask price in relation to a second value axis, wherein the plurality of market depth prices displayed in the market depth interface are determined based on a position of the market depth indicator in relation to the first value axis; receiving by the computing device a command to move the market depth indicator to a new location in relation to the first value axis such that the market depth indicator corresponds to a new plurality of market depth prices; and in response to detecting the new location of the market depth indicator, dynamically modifying by the computing device the market depth interface by adjusting the plurality of market depth prices displayed in relation to the second value axis to display the new plurality of market depth prices with corresponding bid and ask quantities available for the tradeable object at the electronic exchange.
