Publication number: 20110078068Abstract: A system and method for defining and processing timed orders are defined. According to one embodiment, a trader may define a timed order by defining an intra-day time trigger or a time period when the timed order should be automatically modified, such as deleted or cancelled/replaced with a new order. In one embodiment, the intra-day time trigger or time period may be dynamically changed to a later time, for example, upon receiving a predetermined user input. Also, the time trigger and time period may be configured to dynamically vary based on any user configurable formula. Also, the timed order may be associated with one or more actions to be taken once the order is deleted, such as sending a new order, for example.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 12, 2010Publication date: March 31, 2011Applicant: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Michael L. Fishbain, Sagy P. Mintz, Stephen J. Murphy

Publication number: 20110047067Abstract: A system and method for linking and managing linked orders are described. According to one method, a trader may first link two or more orders into a linked order, and then one or more parameters associated with one of the orders may be dynamically changed based on user inputs or information being received from an exchange. For example, a trader may link any two orders as an order cancel order, and each linked order may be associated with the same or different tradable objects, order quantities, and may be submitted to one or more exchanges. The order quantities may be then dynamically updated based on updates being received from the one or more exchanges and further based on a quantity ratio between the two orders. Further, the linked order may be submitted upon detecting a fill for another order.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2010Publication date: February 24, 2011Applicant: TRADING TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Ryan N. Andrews, Sagy P. Mintz, Jyoti Chawla, David W. Garrison

Publication number: 20100293088Abstract: A system and methods are provided for using order descriptor identifiers in relation to orders being used in trading strategies. According to one example method, when a hedge order is submitted upon detecting a fill of another order, the hedge order includes one or more order descriptor identifiers conveying a purpose of the hedge order to a user. The order descriptor identifiers can be used to search for desired orders and perform more effective order management and post trade analysis.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2010Publication date: November 18, 2010Applicant: TRADING TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Alexander D.

Publication number: 20100217703Abstract: 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: May 6, 2010Publication date: August 26, 2010Applicant: TRADING TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Michael J. Burns, Sagy P.

Patent number: 7774262Abstract: 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: GrantFiled: May 2, 2006Date of Patent: August 10, 2010Assignee: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Sagy P.

Publication number: 20100198747Abstract: A system and methods for dynamically changing a trade order quantity in an electronic trading environment are described herein. According to one example embodiment, an automated trading tool determines if a leaned on quantity of a trading strategy has increased or decreased and if so, dynamically changing a desired order quantity to reflect the change in the leaned on quantity. Dynamically changing an order quantity may be more profitable for a trader as order queue position may be maintained and portion of the desired order quantity may get filled; rather than a trader losing their order queue position and/or taking a chance of not getting any of their order quantity filled.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 13, 2010Publication date: August 5, 2010Applicant: TRADING TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Sagy P.

Publication number: 20100070403Abstract: 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: November 18, 2009Publication date: March 18, 2010Applicant: TRADING TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Michael J. Burns, Sagy P.

Patent number: 7672895Abstract: Market data is recorded from a real live exchange. The recording data can be played back in real time or delayed, in any manner, to simulate the recorded market. Moreover, one or more users can participate in the simulated market just as if they were participating in a real-live market. The system provides a realistic trading environment without the associated risks of trading in a live-market such as losing money and the cost of making trades. The system may be used for training purposes and for purposes of testing and analyzing various trading strategies. Software developers and testers may also utilize the realistic environment to develop trading products or applications. Additionally, the system provides a means for demonstrating trading application products.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2002Date of Patent: March 2, 2010Assignee: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Sagy P.
