Methods and systems for managing resources on a mobile trading device
Certain embodiments provide a method including obtaining data at a first time using at least one sensor associated with a mobile computing device, the at least one sensor arranged to gather data regarding at least one operating factor for the mobile computing device, the mobile computing device configured to receive market data and execute a trading application. The example method includes analyzing the data obtained from the at least one sensor to determine the at least one operating factor. The example method includes determining a first operating state of the mobile computing device based on the at least one operating factor. The example method includes altering a function of the mobile computing device with respect to the trading application based on the first operating state.
1. A method including:
monitoring, by a processor of a mobile computing device, data provided by a sensor of the mobile computing device regarding an operating factor of the mobile computing device;
determining, by the processor, a first operating state of the mobile computing device based on the operating factor; and
altering, by the processor, a graphical user interface of a trading application executed by the mobile computing device based on the first operating state, wherein the graphical user interface of the trading application includes a first format and a second format, wherein the first format includes a subset of graphical elements in the second format, wherein altering the graphical user interface of the trading application includes selecting one of the first format and the second format.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the operating factor is at least one of a power level factor, a power consumption factor, an environmental factor, and an activity factor.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data provided by the sensor includes at least any one of light data and audio data.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the data provided by the sensor includes at least any one of motion data and orientation data.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the operating factor includes an activity factor determined according to at least any one of the motion data and orientation data.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein further including altering, by the processor, at least any one of process execution, power distribution, notification scheme, peripheral control, and application execution with respect to the trading application based on the first operating state.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first operating state is indicative of a level of user attention with respect to the trading application of the mobile computing device.
8. The method of claim 1 , further including:
determining, by the processor, a second operating state of the mobile computing device based on the at least one operating factor; and
altering, by the processor, the graphical user interface of the trading application executed by the mobile computing device based on the second operating state.
