Patent number: 8738504Abstract: A system and method for news-based trading are developed. According to one method, a trader can pre-define a trading strategy including a number of trading rules to be applied based on a comparison of one or more estimated event values to the respective actual event values to be released at some later time. The example method further includes, upon receiving one or more actual event values via a user input or directly from outside sources, executing one or more predefined trading rules selected based on the comparison of the received actual event values to the respective estimated indicator values.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2012Date of Patent: May 27, 2014Assignee: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Gerald J. O'Connor, Stephen J. Murphy

Publication number: 20140122319Abstract: A system and method are provided for trading multiple tradeable objects. One example method includes displaying at least one combined quantity indicator representing a combined quantity associated with at least two tradeable objects, detecting an input associated with an order for a predetermined order quantity in relation to one of the combined quantity indicators, and allocating the order quantity between the at least two tradeable objects using at least one quantity allocation rule. In one example embodiment, a plurality of quantity allocation rules can be user-configurable, and different rules can be defined and applied in relation to different order types.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2014Publication date: May 1, 2014Applicant: TRADING TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL, INC.Inventors: Michael J. Burns, Robert A. West, Gerald J. O'Connor, Stephen J. Murphy

Patent number: 8706612Abstract: A system and method are provided for displaying information related to a plurality of tradeable objects using a single graphical interface. One example graphical interface includes at least two screen regions displayed in relation to each other, with each region including a plurality of locations. Each location in the first screen region corresponds to a value along a first value axis, and each location in the second screen region corresponds to a value along a second value axis. The graphical interface also includes a first indicator in the first region and a second indicator in the second region. In response to a repositioning command based on an algorithm, the graphical interface includes a repositioned first value axis and the second value axis, such that the indicators are displayed in new locations determined based on the algorithm.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2013Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: Trading Technologies International, Inc.Inventors: Gerald J. O'Connor, Stephen J. Murphy

Patent number: 8380606Abstract: 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: GrantFiled: November 12, 2010Date of Patent: February 19, 2013Assignee: Trading Technologies International, IncInventors: Michael L.
