Abstract
Market data, such as order information, is displayed in relation to a derivative of price. A derivative of price refers to anything that bears some relationship to price, examples of which, include net change, yield, profit and loss, volatility, momentum indicators, and more. According to various aspects of the preferred embodiments, market data is received from one or more electronic exchanges and a value axis is generated based on a user's preferences. Then, market data can be displayed in relation to the value axis to provide a user interface that allows a trader to view the market from a more desirable perspective.
