Abstract
The present embodiments relate to charting multiple markets. In some embodiments, charting multiple markets may include receiving market data for a plurality of tradeable objects. The plurality of tradeable objects may include an anchor object and at least one non-anchor object. The market data may include anchor object price data for the anchor object and non-anchor price data for the at least one non-anchor object. The non-anchor object price data may be converted based on the anchor object price data such that converted non-anchor object price data has a price scale of the anchor object price data. The anchor object price data and the non-anchor object price data may be displayed along a normalized price axis.
Claims20
A method for charting multiple markets, comprising:
- receiving, using a computing device, market data for a plurality of tradeable objects, the plurality of tradeable objects including an anchor object and at least one non-anchor object and the market data including anchor object price data for the anchor object and non-anchor price data for the at least one non-anchor object;
- converting, using the computing device, non-anchor object price data based on the anchor object price data such that converted non-anchor object price data has a price scale of the anchor object price data;
- displaying, using the computing device, the anchor object price data and the non-anchor object price data along a normalized price axis.
A tangible computer readable storage medium including a set of instructions for execution by a processor, the set of instructions, when executed, implement a method including:
- receiving market data for a plurality of tradeable objects, the plurality of tradeable objects including an anchor object and at least one non-anchor object and the market data including anchor object price data for the anchor object and non-anchor price data for the at least one non-anchor object;
- converting non-anchor object price data based on the anchor object price data such that converted non-anchor object price data has a price scale of the anchor object price data;
- displaying the anchor object price data and the non-anchor object price data along a normalized price axis.
A method for converting non-anchor price data, comprising:
- receiving, using a computing device, market data for a plurality of tradeable objects, the plurality of tradeable objects including an anchor object and a non-anchor object and the market data including anchor object price data for the anchor object and non-anchor price data for the non-anchor object;
- calculating, using the computing device, a normalization delta for the non-anchor object using an anchor price of the anchor object;
- converting, using the computing device, the non-anchor object price data based on the anchor price of the anchor object;
- and
- charting, using the computing device, the anchor object price data and the converted non-anchor object price data on a bar chart having a normalized price axis.
A method for triggering a new relationship bar, comprising:
- receiving, using a computing device, market data for a plurality of tradeable objects, the plurality of tradeable objects including a trigger object;
- displaying, using the computing device, a bar chart including a normalized price axis;
- displaying, using the computing device, a first relationship bar on the bar chart, wherein the first relationship bar includes a first plurality of tradeable object bars that represent the plurality of tradeable objects during a first period of time and are plotted and move in accordance with the normalized price axis;
- displaying, using the computing device, a trigger level interface that displays market data for the trigger object relative to a trigger level indicator, wherein the trigger level indicator indicates market data relative to a trigger level that triggers the generation of a second relationship bar when market data satisfies the trigger level.
