Abstract: An automated trader facilitates automatic trading of tradeable objects over one or more electronic exchanges. According to one embodiment, an automated trader utilizes a user programmable interface. The user programmable interface allows the user to simply develop a program that is based on a set of specifications and relationships given by the user and input into a profile, or if desired, input directly into the programmable interface referred to as direct entry. For each tradeable object, a profile may be selected, and then an automated trader can execute the program to perform a series of actions according to that selected profile and directed order entry, if any. An automated trader may also be used at a communication level to create an intelligent interface between third-party trading-related applications and exchanges.

Abstract: A system and methods for automatic scalping in an electronic trading environment are presented. According to one embodiment, a trading application may display an indicator associated with a price level based on which a tradable object can be automatically traded. When a scalping application detects a fill associated with a first order, the scalping application may automatically enter a second order to offset a position created with the first order. According to one embodiment, the second order is automatically placed on the market when the inside market moves to a predetermined price level in relation to the displayed indicator.
