Publication number: 20150142634Abstract: A system and method are provided that, among other things, can reduce the burden on receiving computers, increase data throughput, reduce system failure, and provide components of a scalable and flexible network architecture. Specifically, the system and method provide a multichannel-multicast network environment for use in dynamically assigning data to channels. This configuration is particularly useful in a trading network environment, as it effectively performs channel reassignments in a way not to disturb the receipt of the underlying data. While the example embodiments described herein pertain to electronic trading, the principles of the present invention may be equally applied in other environments where the advantages presented herein are beneficial.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 24, 2014Publication date: May 21, 2015Inventors: Sagy P. Mintz, Alexander D. Deitz

Publication number: 20140297511Abstract: Synthetic spread trading strategies are represented and managed as homogeneous tradeable objects. Relationships between a synthetic spread and its constituent parts are defined and states for a spread are developed for accurately reporting, tracking and otherwise administering a synthetic spread and its constituent parts. A state of a synthetic spread is identified as working, pending, legged or filled. The states, in addition to identification of a synthetic spread's constituent parts, introduces information to allow a spread order and its post trade analysis to be consistently and effectively managed by multiple trading tools.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2014Publication date: October 2, 2014Inventors: Tom James Haldes, Sagy Pundak Mintz, Patricia A. Messina, Alexander D. Deitz

Publication number: 20140297501Abstract: System and methods for reducing the risks involved in trading multiple spread trading strategies in an electronic trading environment are provided. Specifically, reducing the risks involved in trading multiple spreads that share a leg by, among other things, quoting a single order in the shared leg instead of quoting orders for each of the corresponding spread legs. Based on the computed quote price for the single order, associating the single order with the leaned on price that results in the price closest to the inside market in the shared leg. The single quote order is based on the market conditions in the spread legs and the desired spread price. Once the single order fills, a hedge order is sent to the leg that obtains the most advantageous price for the spread based on the other spread options.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 7, 2014Publication date: October 2, 2014Applicant: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Alexander D.

Publication number: 20140236797Abstract: A system and associated methods are provided for use of fractional pay-up ticks in relation to offset orders being sent for a trading strategy that involves trading a first tradeable object and at least a second tradeable object. According to one example method, when an indication is received that a quantity at a first price for the first tradeable object is filled, a plurality of offset orders for the second tradeable object is sent to an electronic order book of the second tradeable object. The plurality of offset orders is placed at a plurality of price levels determined based on at least one fractional pay-up tick value, the first price, and the desired spread price. A quantity for each order is determined based on a quantity divider rule that is applied to an offset quantity to offset the fill.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2014Publication date: August 21, 2014Applicant: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Sagy P. Mintz, Eric M. Herz, Alexander D. Deitz

Publication number: 20140229355Abstract: A system and associated methods are provided for smart hedging in an electronic trading environment. According to one example method, a first order for a first tradeable object and a second order for a second tradeable object are placed based on a spread strategy. Upon receiving an indication that a quantity of the first order is filled, the method involves determining if the second order can be used to offset the quantity filled of the first order by determining if a price of the second order would result in achieving a desired spread price defined for the spread strategy. If the price results in the desired price, the second order is used to offset the quantity filled for the first order in an attempt to achieve the desired spread price. Other tools are provided as well.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2013Publication date: August 14, 2014Inventors: Michael J. Burns, Sagy P. Mintz, Eric M. Herz, Alexander D. Deitz

Publication number: 20140195408Abstract: A system and associated methods are provided for intelligent placement and movement of orders in an electronic trading environment. According to one example method, in addition to submitting a leg order at a calculated price level, additional orders, queue holder orders, are submitted for the leg order at prices either below or above the calculated price level. Based on this configuration, if the conditions change such that it is necessary to re-price the leg order, there will be already an order resting in the exchange order book at the re-calculated price that can be used in the strategy. Upon re-pricing the leg order, one or more additional queue holder orders will be placed in the market. Other tools are provided as well.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 10, 2014Publication date: July 10, 2014Applicant: TRADING TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Michael J. Burns, Eric M.

Publication number: 20140172665Abstract: System and method for aggressively trading a spread trading strategy in an electronic environment are provided herein. According to the example embodiments, a trader may configure the automated trading tool to trade as aggressively as possible by leaning on a price without an associated quantity. This allows a trader to possibly obtain a more profitable price as well as get filled faster. Traders submit an order for a spread and the automated trading tool calculates the quote order price based on a defined level of aggressiveness, the leaned on price, and the desired spread price. Based on the level of defined aggressiveness and the gap in the market, the automated trading tool may lean on a mildly, moderately, or extremely aggressive price.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 2, 2013Publication date: June 19, 2014Inventors: Nicholas G.
