Abstract
Systems, methods and user interfaces are provided for displaying spread product market data and statistics. Market data may be arranged in a matrix and statistical information is inserted in the matrix in available space. In some cases, a computer system may receive market data for a plurality of spread products, receive and/or compute statistical information for the plurality of spread products, and generate a user interface screen that includes the market data for the plurality of spread products and the statistical information associated with the plurality of spread products, where the market data and the statistical information are arranged in a matrix.
Claims20
A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause a computer device to:
- receive, via a network from an exchange computing system, market data for a plurality of spread products;
- receive statistical information for the plurality of spread products;
- generate a user interface screen for presentation at a user interface of a user device, the user information screen includes the market data for the plurality of spread products and the statistical information arranged in a matrix, the matrix comprising a plurality of cells with each cell corresponding to one of the plurality of the spread products;
- display, at the user device, in a first portion of the matrix on the user interface screen, first time period information corresponding to the plurality of spread products;
- display, at the user device, in a second portion of the matrix on the user interface screen, second time period information corresponding to the plurality of spread products;
- and
- display, on the user interface screen at the user device, a line of period labels arranged diagonally in the spread matrix in relation to the first portion of the matrix and the second portion of the matrix, wherein the line of period labels correspond to an intersection of same dates in the first portion of the matrix and the second portion of the matrix.
A method comprising:
- receiving, via a network, market data for a plurality of spread products;
- receiving, via the network, statistical information for the plurality of spread products;
- generating, by at least one computing device, a user interface screen that includes the market data for the plurality of spread products and the statistical information arranged in a matrix, the matrix comprising a plurality of cells with each cell corresponding to one of the plurality of the spread products;
- displaying, in a first portion of the matrix on the user interface screen, first time period information corresponding to the plurality of spread products;
- displaying, in a second portion of the matrix on the user interface screen, second time period information corresponding to the plurality of spread products;
- and
- displaying, on the user interface screen, a line of period labels arranged diagonally in the spread matrix in relation to the first portion of the matrix and the second portion of the matrix, wherein the line of period labels correspond to an intersection of same dates in the first portion of the matrix and the second portion of the matrix.
A system comprising:
- a user interface device;
- a computing system communicatively coupled via a network to the user interface device, wherein the computing system includes:
- one or more processing devices;
- and
- a non-transitory memory device, communicatively coupled to the one or more processing devices, the non-transitory memory device storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processing devices, cause the computing system to:
- receive market data for a plurality of spread products;
- receive statistical information for the plurality of spread products;
- generate a user interface screen that includes the market data for the plurality of spread products and the statistical information arranged in a matrix, the matrix comprising a plurality of cells with each cell corresponding to one of the plurality of the spread products;
- and
- display, in a first portion of the matrix on the user interface screen, first time period information corresponding to the plurality of spread products;
- provide at least one input corresponding to a purchase command and at least one input corresponding to a sell command, wherein each of the at least one input corresponding to the purchase command is associated with a corresponding at least on output corresponding to the sell command as an input pair, and wherein the input pair is associated with a different one of the plurality of spread products in a corresponding cell of the matrix.;
- display, in a second portion of the matrix on the user interface screen, second time period information corresponding to the plurality of spread products;
- and
- display, on the user interface screen, a line of period labels arranged diagonally in the spread matrix in relation to the first portion of the matrix and the second portion of the matrix, wherein the line of period labels correspond to an intersection of same dates in the first portion of the matrix and the second portion of the matrix.
