Abstract: A computer system associated with spot market trading in a particular subject matter may communicate with a computer system associated with trading in futures contracts or options in futures contracts for the subject matter. The communications may include pricing data for at least one of futures contracts or options in futures contracts for the subject matter, which pricing data may be used for spot market pricing. The communications may also include communications regarding futures hedging of spot trading in the subject matter.

Abstract: A system for moving money between accounts of traders by a central counterparty to facilitate a plurality of payments, i.e. the movement of funds, there between is disclosed which provides a flexible mechanism which supports simpler accounting, new types of derivatives contracts as well new types fees. The disclosed futures contract, referred to as a “payor” contract, comprises a “no-uncertainty” futures contract, i.e. the initial value and settlement value parameters are defined, that leverages the mechanisms of the clearing system to, for example, accommodate related payments. Accordingly, a 1-to-many relationship between contracts and prices is provided whereby each price component may be assigned its own payor contract. The function of the payor contract may be to guarantee the movement of money from related positions. In one embodiment, payor contracts are dynamically created whenever a payment is needed.
