Abstract: A computer-implemented method for calculating a trade price reference indicator includes step 101: creating a frequency distribution chart based on a price increment; step 102: selecting an accumulation distribution point from the frequency distribution chart; and step 103: calculating an average deviation of an active range based on the accumulation distribution point, calculating a significant range, and using the significant range as an equitable value of a market. The method calculates and generates a trading reference price indicator of a financial market product by superimposing discrete quantitative elements of time and quantity distributions onto conventional price-time, so as to accurately reflect real-time market transactions, avoid price manipulation, and achieve accurate statistics and analysis of financial prices.
