System and method for displaying trade information for electronic trading exchange
An application is disclosed that receives from a host exchange a plurality of trade notifications, each trade notification corresponding to an executed trade, and for each executed trade of interest, may determine whether the executed trade belongs in an aggregated set with one or more other executed trades. The application provides an indicator for indicating whether the corresponding executed trade or aggregated trade traded on the bid side or on the offer side of the market, and which indicates whether additional volume is available at the associated trade price.
1. A system including:
a computing device, wherein the computing device is configured to:
receive a plurality of trade notifications, wherein each of the plurality of trade notifications corresponds to a matched trade for a tradable object, wherein each of the plurality of trade notifications is for the same tradeable object, wherein each of the plurality of trade notifications includes a trade quantity and a trade price, wherein the trade price is the same for each of the plurality of trade notifications, wherein each of the plurality of trade notifications corresponds to a matched trade on a side for the tradable object, wherein the side is the same for each of the plurality of trade notifications, wherein the side is one of a buy side and a sell side, wherein the plurality of trade notifications includes a last notification;
aggregate the plurality of trade notifications in an aggregated set based on the trade price included in each trade notification;
provide an aggregated trade indicator representing the aggregated set, wherein the aggregated trade indicator represents the sum of the trade quantities of the plurality of trade notifications at the trade price of the plurality of trade notifications;
determine, in response to receipt of the last notification, whether no quantity remains available on the side for the tradable object at the trade price of the last notification by comparing the trade quantity of the last notification and a total quantity available on the side for the tradable object at the trade price of the last notification before receipt of the last notification; and
provide a no quantity remains indicator representing that no quantity remains available on the side for the tradable object at the trade price of the last notification in response to determining that no quantity remains, wherein the no quantity remains indicator is provided by one of: (i) as part of the aggregated trade indicator and (ii) in relation to the aggregated trade indicator.
