Systems and methods for multivariate sorting of financial data

A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable medium that stores instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to perform a method comprising:

• receiving market data related to a first plurality of financial instruments, including sortable data for a first aspect and a second aspect associated with the first plurality of financial instruments;
• outputting, by a processor, for display, a visual representation of the market data, the visual representation comprising a table having a plurality of rows corresponding to the first plurality of financial instruments, and a plurality of columns including a first column corresponding to the first aspect and a second column corresponding to the second aspect;
• responsive to receiving an indication to sort by the first aspect, sorting in a first instance, according to the first aspect, the market data related to the subset of the plurality of financial instruments, wherein a relative position, in the table, of rows corresponding to the first plurality of financial instruments is selected to reflect the sorting in the first instance;
• and
• responsive to receiving an indication to sort by the second aspect, sorting in a second instance, according to the second aspect, the market data related to the subset of the plurality of financial instruments, wherein a plurality of colors associated with rows in the table corresponding to the first plurality of financial instruments is selected to reflect the sorting in the second instance,
• wherein the sorting in the first instance and the second instance are concurrently reflected in the table.

A method for sorting financial data, comprising:

• receiving, at a client system, from a server system, market data related to a subset of a plurality of financial instruments, including sortable data for a first aspect and a second aspect associated with the plurality of financial instruments, the subset of the plurality of financial instruments selected, at the server system, from the plurality of financial instruments based on a threshold corresponding to a third aspect associated with the plurality of financial instruments;
• outputting, by a processor, for display at the client system, a visual representation of the market data, the visual representation comprising a table having a plurality of rows corresponding to the subset of the plurality of financial instruments, and a plurality of columns including a first column corresponding to the first aspect and a second column corresponding to the second aspect;
• responsive to receiving an indication to sort by the first aspect, sorting in a first instance, according to the first aspect, the market data related to the subset of the plurality of financial instruments, wherein a relative position, in the table, of rows corresponding to the subset of the plurality of financial instruments is selected to reflect the sorting in the first instance;
• and
• responsive to receiving an indication to sort by the second aspect, sorting in a second instance, according to the second aspect, the market data related to the subset of the plurality of financial instruments,
• wherein a plurality of colors associated with rows corresponding to the subset of the plurality of financial instruments is selected to reflect the sorting in the second instance,
• wherein the plurality of colors is based on a gradient between two colors, a first color from the two colors corresponding to a first value for the second aspect and a second color from the two colors corresponding to a second value for the second aspect, and
• wherein the sorting in the first instance and the second instance are concurrently reflected in the table.
