A method comprising:
- rendering, by at least one processor, a multidimensional graph on a display device;
- plotting, by the at least one processor, a plurality of diamond symbols on the graph, each diamond symbol being indicative of a current bid on a financial instrument;
- plotting, by the at least one processor, a plurality of square symbols on the graph, each square symbol being indicative of a current offer on a financial instrument;
- plotting, by the at least one processor, a curve on the graph, the curve being representative of a fair value for the financial instrument;
- detecting, by the at least one processor, a selection of a diamond symbol, a square symbol, or a point on the curve;
- and
- in response to detecting the selection, generating, by the at least one processor, a trading dialog box on the display device and pre-filling at least one field in the trading dialog box with information corresponding to the selection of the diamond symbol, the square symbol, or the point on the curve.
