correlating, by a correlation processor coupled with the identification processor, the first and second available order books based on one or more components of the first and second available products;
generating, by a market generator coupled with the identification processor and the correlation processor, a new order book for the new product based on the correlating; and
causing the new product to be listed on the exchange such that subsequently received orders to buy or sell the new product are matched based on the new order book or entered into the new order book.
