  • Publication number: 20240095825
    Abstract: A tool for synthetic order recovery is provided. An exemplary method for synthetic order recovery includes the features for detecting a server event associated with a synthetic order server identified by a synthetic order server identifier, wherein the synthetic order server is in communication with the recovery tool; determining at least one active synthetic order associated with the synthetic order server identifier; determining a child order status for each child order related to the at least one active synthetic order, wherein the child order status includes an updated child order quantity since the server event was detected, and wherein each child order is associated with the synthetic order server identifier; calculating an updated synthetic order quantity for each of the at least one active synthetic order and based on the updated child order quantity; generating a recovery package including the at least one active synthetic order and the updated synthetic order quantity.

  • Publication number: 20230252567
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments generally relate to a slicer order quantity reduction tool. An example method for reducing a quantity of a slicer order includes calculating a collective quantity associated with available ones of a plurality of child orders; comparing the collective quantity and a reduction amount received in connection with a quantity reduction request for the slicer order; and determining, when the comparison indicates that the available ones of the child orders have insufficient quantity to meet the reduction amount, whether inflight ones of the plurality of child orders collectively have sufficient quantity to make up a shortfall of the available ones of the child orders.

  • Publication number: 20190037434
    Abstract: Certain embodiments provide methods, tangible computer storage medium, and systems of shared communication links in an electronic trading system. An example method includes determining a first network service state of a first communication network established between a first wireless trading device and an exchange and receiving a second network service state of a second communication network established between a second wireless trading device and the exchange. The first wireless trading device receives the second network state from the second wireless device via a shared communication link. The example method also includes determining an active communication network based on a quality-of-service metric calculated between the first communication network and the second communication network by comparing the first network service state and the second network service state.

  • Publication number: 20180321810
    Abstract: Systems and methods to obfuscate market data on a trading device are disclosed. An example method includes receiving market data related to a tradeable object at a first computing device, generating, by the first computing device, a trading interface to present the market data to a trader and reconfiguring the trading interface from a first mode to a second mode in response to a privacy command supplied by the trader via the first computing device. The first computing device is to obfuscate the market data presented by the trading interface when in the second mode. The example method includes receiving, by a second computing device, the obfuscated market data in response to the privacy command and generating, by the second computing device, a private interface to present the obfuscated market data to the trader in response to the privacy command.

  • Publication number: 20180322578
    Abstract: Certain embodiments provide a method including determining a communication state of a trading device, the communication state based on one or more factors including a measured signal strength of a first channel, the trading device configured to utilize at least one of a first channel and a second channel to communicate. The example method includes comparing the communication state to a communication criterion. The example method includes reconfiguring, based on the comparison of the communication state to the communication criterion, the trading device from transmitting using only the first channel to transmitting using both the first channel and the second channel. The example method includes assigning a first identifier to a first trading order.

  • Patent number: 9947049
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus to calculate and display transaction adjusted values are disclosed. An example method includes defining an order related to a tradeable object listed on an electronic exchange, wherein the order is associated with a user; determining whether the user qualifies for a pricing incentive that rewards trading activity meeting a threshold; when the user qualifies for the pricing incentive, calculating a transaction adjusted value of the order at respective ones of a plurality of price levels of a trading interface, wherein the pricing incentive is factored into the calculation of the transaction adjusted value for a first one of the price levels, and the pricing incentive is not factored into the calculation of the transaction adjusted value of a second one of the price levels; and displaying ones of the transaction adjusted values in a value axis of the trading interface in connection with respective ones of the plurality of price levels.

  • Publication number: 20170372425
    Abstract: The disclosure generally relates to a speed adjustable and reversible tool for slicer orders. In an example, a user command is received to adjust one or more parameters of a slicer order that has been submitted for trading or otherwise includes one or more child order to be submitted for trading. A user input device, or controller may be used to receive the command, such as by sliding one or more sliders along a range to affect adjustment of one or more corresponding parameters of the slicer order and/or child orders.
