A system and methods are provided for depicting on-line transactions. Transactions may be represented as a connected graph with various visual and/or aural attributes indicating different statuses for various transaction parameters. Nodes may represent entities providing or receiving value, while edges represent transactions conducted between entities. The relative magnitude of value of a transaction may be represented by the thickness or pattern of an edge, while a time period during which it occurred may be indicated by color. Different types of entities may be represented by nodes of different shapes, and/or specific entities within a type may have other unique attributes (e.g., color, size). A graph may be generated by starting with an initial account, entity or transaction that meets one or more criteria (e.g., value amount, frequency of activity). The system may then trace the source and/or destination of value transferred from/to the initial entity to identify a set of related or connected transactions.
