The disclosed embodiments relate to reduction of computational resources of an electronic trading system required for management of electronic tradeable instruments via instantiation of data objects in a memory including both data inherited from and data linked to a master data object stored in an external data structure or database. The combination of both inherited and referenced attributes may uniquely define each instance to enable the electronic trading system to manage and process transactions for a large number of tradeable instrument variations with minimal computational resources. Thereby, the disclosed embodiments enable the listing en mass and scheduling of a large number of financial instruments for trading to cover, for example, various currency patterns, pricing sources and fixing times.

Reduction of computational resources of an electronic trading system required for management of electronic tradeable instruments implemented as instantiated data objects

A computer implemented method for aggregating quantities associated with messages includes: generating an implied message for an object based on two constituent messages, wherein the implied message is associated with a value based on the values of the constituent messages, a priority that is equivalent to the lower of the priorities of the constituent messages, and a quantity that is equivalent to the lesser of the quantities of the constituent messages, receiving third and fourth messages, increasing the quantity of the implied message based on the received messages, and upon an occurrence of a match event involving the implied message, automatically allocating all of the quantity of the implied message for matching during the match event before allocating any of the quantity associated with the third message for matching during the match event.

Systems and methods for reducing data lookups within a set of queues

A data transaction processing system receives electronic data transaction request messages from client computers over a data communication network and groups a subset of the electronic data transaction request messages at varying intervals. The intervals may be dynamically determined and may be based on the volume and rate of the incoming electronic data transaction request messages. The data transaction processing system may preprocess the group of electronic data transaction request messages before forwarding the electronic data transaction request messages to a transaction processor, which processes the subset of electronic data transaction request messages in a non-chronological order.

Mitigation of latency disparity in a data transaction processing system

A data transaction processing system receives electronic data transaction request messages from client computers over a data communication network and groups a subset of the electronic data transaction request messages. The data transaction processing system may preprocess the group of electronic data transaction request messages based on the other messages in the same group before forwarding the electronic data transaction request messages to a transaction processor.
