METHODS AND APPARATUS TO IMPLEMENT TWO-STEP TRADE ACTION EXECUTION
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- detecting, via a user interface generated by a computing device, an activation event associated with an interface control corresponding to a trade action, wherein the activation event is a gestural input received via the generated user interface;
detecting, in response to the detected activation event, an enabling event associated with the interface control;
determining whether the enabling event satisfies one or more activation criterion; and
in response to the enabling event satisfying the one or more activation criterion, initiating the trade action associated with the activated interface control.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus to implement two-step trade action execution are disclosed herein. An example method includes detecting, via a user interface generated by a computing device, an activation event associated with an interface control corresponding to a trade action, wherein the activation event is a gestural input received via the generated user interface. The example method also includes detecting, in response to the detected activation event, an enabling event associated with the interface control. The example method also includes determining whether the enabling event satisfies one or more activation criterion, and in response to the enabling event satisfying the one or more activation criterion, initiating the trade action associated with the activated interface control.

12. An apparatus comprising:
-
an activation event detecting module to detect an activation event via a user interface, the user interface to include an interface control that is to correspond to a trade action, and wherein the user interface is to receive the activation event as a gestural input; an enabling event detecting module to detect an enabling event associated with the interface control; a criterion satisfying detection module to compare the enabling event to an activation criterion; and a trade action execution module to, based on the comparison, execute the trade action that is to correspond to the interface control. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
