An apparatus, method, and non-transitory medium for betting on weather predictions are disclosed herein. A plurality of longitude and latitude coordinate pairs may be received from a remote device. The display device may render data representing a binary option based on whether a storm will make landfall within the certain radius. A request to purchase the binary option may be received. It may be determined whether the landfall location corresponds to a zip code associated with the given longitude latitude pair in the memory.

Interface for landfall location options

Methods, apparatuses and article of manufactures for receiving a plurality of bids and offers for a binary options transaction. Each bid and offer comprises a quantity and a price. At least one rule is applied to the plurality of received bids and offers. At least one of the plurality of bids and offers is determined to be potentially manipulative. An alert that the at least one bid or offer is potentially manipulative is transmitted.

Systems and methods of detecting manipulations on a binary options exchange

Methods, apparatuses, and article of manufactures for receiving a plurality of bids and offers for a binary options instrument. Each bid and offer comprises a quantity and a price. A subset of bids and offers from the plurality of received bids and offers is generated. At least one rule is applied to the subset of bids and offers to generate a reduced subset of bids and offers. A binary options index is computed from the reduced subset of bids and offers. A request for a binary options transaction that is based on the computer binary options index is received.

Systems and methods for computing an index for a binary options transaction

Various embodiments comprise systems, methods, and computer-readable media for configuring and trading binary options. A first index may be configured, e.g., based on a portfolio configured by a user. One or more second indices may be determined. A binary option may pay out if the first index outperforms the one or more second indices, e.g., over a period of time. The binary option may be traded in the primary and secondary markets.

Binary options on selected indices

An exchange through which swap contracts may be traded. Embodiments may allow a trader to announce a potential crossing before the crossing is requested. The user may then request the crossing between two parties. An announcement window may be kept open through a chaining of announcements. An interloper with a same price but better time than a party to the cross may be kept out of interloping in the cross. A ticker symbol system may list a clearinghouse to be used to execute a requested cross.

Swap crossing system and method

An apparatus, method, and non-transitory medium for betting on weather predictions are disclosed herein. A plurality of longitude and latitude coordinate pairs may be received from a remote device. The display device may render data on a graphical user interface representing a binary option based on whether a storm will make landfall within the certain radius. The display device may show a plurality of landfall probabilities on the map. A request to purchase the binary option may be received. It may be determined whether the landfall location corresponds to a zip code associated with the given longitude latitude pair in the memory.

Methods, apparatuses, and article of manufactures for receiving a plurality of bids and offers for a binary options instrument. Each bid and offer comprises a quantity and a price. A subset of bids and offers from the plurality of received bids and offers is generated. At least one rule is applied to the subset of bids and offers to generate a reduced subset of bids and offers. A binary options index is computed from the reduced subset of bids and offer. A request for a binary options transaction that is based on the computed binary options index is received.

Methods, apparatus and article of manufactures for providing seamless transitions between graphical images on a binary options interface. An user-input is received on a touch-sensitive display of the binary options interface. The user-input corresponds to a request for a transformation of a graphical image that is displayed on the binary options interface. The binary options interface is integrated into a mobile device. In response to the user-input, an updated graphical image is generated. The updated graphical image is displayed to replace the graphical image on the binary options interface. The graphical image to the updated graphical image comprises a continuously displayed image.
