aggregating, by a trade application implemented at the trade server, the plurality of trade notifications in an aggregated set based on the trade price included in each trade notification;
providing, by the trade application, an aggregated trade indicator representing the aggregated set, wherein the aggregated trade indicator represents a sum of the trade quantities included in each of the plurality of trade notifications at the trade price of the plurality of trade notifications;
in response to receipt of the last notification, determining, by the trade application, whether no quantity remains available by comparing the trade quantity of the last notification and a total quantity available for the tradable object at the trade price of the last notification before receipt of the last notification; and
in response to determining that no quantity remains, providing, by the trade application, a no quantity remains indicator representing that no quantity remains available for the tradable object at the trade price of the last notification, 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.
