Abstract: A collector facility for an electronic market is described. The collector facility includes an interface for coupling order delivery systems to the order collector facility and a quote manager that manages multiple quotes/orders received from the interface at multiple price levels. The facility also includes a montage manager to display quotes received from the quote order manager in an aggregate montage or a current quote montage consistent with parameters specified in the multiple quotes.

Abstract: A market system that includes an internal execution process is described. The system includes an order execution process that receives orders and matches orders against quotes posted in the system on a time priority basis and an order match-off process that checks if a market participant identification associated with a received order matches a market participant identification representing a quote in the system that is at the best bid or best offer price in the system.

Abstract: Multiple securities processors each process attributable security interest messages generated by market participants. Each of these attributable security interest messages relates to a specific security chosen from a plurality of securities traded on the securities trading system, such that each individual security is assigned to one or more of the securities processors. An order routing system routes each attributable security interest message to one of the securities processors.

Abstract: A system for execution of transactions includes a main memory of a computer system storing an order book to match a portion of security interest in the order book to a received order for a security.

Abstract: An electronic market for trading of securities includes a plurality of client stations for entering quotes for securities and a server process that receives quotes from the clients, aggregates the quotes and causes a total of all aggregated quotes to be displayed for a plurality of price levels on the client systems. The market uses a graphical user that depicts aggregated quotes in an aggregate window a plurality of price levels of a product traded in the market. The market also includes processes to handle lock/cross market conditions, match-off of order flow and provides a central quote/order collector that interfaces to disparate order delivery systems to minimize dual liability of market makers.

Abstract: A system for handling quotes in an electronic market is described. The system includes a lock/cross quote detector which determines whether a quote which is entered into the market system would lock or cross other quotes in the market system and a quote formatter that receives quotes that, if entered, would lock or cross the market and reformats the quotes as marketable liability orders. The system includes a routing process that routes reformatted quotes as marketable liability orders to a market participant whose quote was locked or crossed.
