AUTOMATED SPREAD TRADING SYSTEM

摘要

An automated spread trading terminal receives from a user a selection of a spread trade indicative of a set of trading contracts and transmits to an electronic trading exchange a first set of messages including an order message relating to the user selection such that an initial set of more working orders are rendered operative. The terminal receives from the electronic trading exchange a first fill confirmation message confirming at least partial completion of a first working order, and in response transmits to the electronic trading exchanges both second and third sets of messages such that a completing set of working orders are rendered operative and additional working orders corresponding to the trading contracts are rendered operative, the third set of messages being transmitted before the set of working orders is completed.
