Abstract

The disclosure details the implementation of an APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR A HIGH DENSITY FINANCIAL ASSET INFORMATION DISPLAY. The disclosure teaches a High Density Financial Asset Information Display which provides a high density, straightforward, compact, dynamic and comprehensive display interface that presents users with a high volume of easy-to-understand financial asset information including the current buy and sell prices, the current price direction, the amount of time the asset pair is traded at each price, and the change in price over multiple time frames. The High Density Financial Asset Information Display is dynamically updated with the latest financial information and is updated periodically to provide real time changes in a Sparkline that displays the day low, day high, VWAP of a financial asset in a snapshot of twenty minutes with colored directional arrows with color coded trails.

Claims

1. In memory, storing a plurality of processor-issuable processing instructions to provide an interaction interface having a plurality of interaction interface mechanisms, comprising:

a first asset selection interface element for providing selection of an initial financial asset class;

a display area showing asset information from interaction selection made in the first asset selection interface element, wherein the asset information comprises;

an asset sparkline indicator element responsive to the asset information;

the asset sparkline indicator element having a visual indicator, wherein the visual indicator includes a trail, the asset sparkline indicator element in a position corresponding to the current price of the asset, a region allowing the asset sparkline velocity indicator element to move within the price range of the asset pair for a last twenty minutes, the visual indicator having a color and a directionality, wherein the color and directionality is determined by using a price slope of the asset for the past thirty seconds and the trail shows a price momentum of the asset for the past twenty minutes with a color; and

the asset sparkline indicator element having a volume weight average price indicator.

2. The interaction interface of claim 1, wherein the visual indicator is in shape of an arrow.

3. The interaction interface of claim 2, wherein the arrow has a directionality.

4. The interaction interface of claim 3, wherein the arrow has a directionality towards a high price of the asset for a deployment relevant time span;

5. The interaction interface of claim 3, wherein the arrow has a directionality towards a low price of the asset for a deployment relevant time span;

6. The interaction interface of claim 2, wherein the arrow is red if a price slope of the asset is negative for the past thirty seconds.

7. The interaction interface of claim 2, wherein the arrow is green if a price slope of the asset is positive for the past thirty seconds.

8. The interaction interface of claim 1, wherein the trail is green if an overall price momentum of the asset for a deployment relevant time span is positive.

9. The interaction interface of claim 1, wherein the trail is red if an overall price momentum of the asset for a deployment relevant time span is negative.

10. The interaction interface of claim 1, wherein the trail is red and green if an overall price momentum of the asset in the past twenty minutes has been positive and negative.

11. The interaction interface of claim 5, wherein the volume weight average price indicator is a moving dot on the asset sparkline indicator element.

12. The interaction interface of claim 11, wherein the moving dot is updated every five seconds.

13. The interaction interface of claim 12, wherein a tool tip is displayed when a mouse is hovered over the moving dot.

14. The interaction interface of claim 5, wherein a tool tip is displayed when a mouse is hovered over the arrow.

15. A processor-implemented method to provide a high density financial asset information display, comprising:

receiving financial data for a selected financial asset;

retrieving historical asset information associated with the selected financial asset;

calculating a day low and a day high of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

calculating price slope of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

calculating a volume weight average price of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

determining a position and directionality of a current price indicator;

determining a display color of the current price indicator based on the current and historical asset information of the selected financial asset;

determining a display color of a trail indicator of the current price indicator based on the current and historical asset information of the selected financial asset;

creating a high density information display using the calculated and determined values;

presenting the high density information display; and

updating the high density information display based on changes in the determined display element values.

16. An apparatus, comprising:

a memory;

a processor disposed in communication with said memory, and configured to issue a plurality of processing instructions stored in the memory, wherein the processor issues instructions to;

receive financial data for a selected financial asset;

retrieve historical asset information associated with the selected financial asset;

calculate a day low and a day high of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

calculate price slope of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

calculate a volume weight average price of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

determine a position and directionality of a current price indicator;

determine a display color of the current price indicator based on the current and historical asset information of the selected financial asset;

determine a display color of a trail indicator of the current price indicator based on the current and historical asset information of the selected financial asset;

create a high density information display using the calculated and determined values;

present the high density information display; and

update the high density information display based on changes in the determined display element values.

17. A processor-readable medium storing a plurality of processing instructions, comprising issuable instructions by a processor to:

receive financial data for a selected financial asset;

retrieve historical asset information associated with the selected financial asset;

calculate a day low and a day high of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

calculate price slope of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

calculate a volume weight average price of the selected financial asset from current and historical asset information;

determine a position and directionality of a current price indicator;

determine a display color of the current price indicator based on the current and historical asset information of the selected financial asset;

determine a display color of a trail indicator of the current price indicator based on the current and historical asset information of the selected financial asset;

create a high density information display using the calculated and determined values;

present the high density information display; and

update the high density information display based on changes in the determined display element values.

18. A processor-implemented method to provide a high density financial asset information display, comprising:

receiving financial data and historical asset information for a selected financial asset;

calculating a day low and a day high of the selected financial asset;

calculating price slope of the selected financial asset;

determining a position, directionality and display color of a current price indicator;

determining a display color of a trail indicator of the current price indicator;

creating a high density information display populated with a current price indicator and a trail indicator wherein the high density information display is updated periodically with the determined position, directionality and display color of a current price indicator and determined display color of a trail indicator of the current price indicator.

19. The method of claim 18, wherein determining the display color of the trail indicator further includes calculating a change of velocity for the current price indicator, wherein the trail characteristics are based on the calculated change of velocity.
