historical pricing information for at least one reference item;
historical pricing information for at least one non-fungible target item; and
market pricing information for at least the reference item; and
a pricing engine operable to;
determine a pricing differential between the target item and the reference item, the pricing differential reflecting the historical pricing information for the target and reference items;

Abstract
A system (10) for generating market pricing information for a non-fungible target item includes one or more databases containing historical pricing information (22) for at least one reference item, historical pricing information (20) for at least the target item, and market pricing information (24) for at least the reference item. A pricing engine (18) determines a pricing differential (32) between the target item and the reference item that reflects historical pricing information (20, 22) for the target and reference items. The pricing engine (18) applies the pricing differential (32) to the market pricing information (22) for the reference item to generate market pricing information (36) for the target item. The market pricing information (22) for the reference item may include a substantially real-time current market price for the reference item, and the market pricing information (36) for the target item may be generated in the form of a substantially real-time current market price quote for the target item for communication to a market participant (12, 14).
