Abstract
An automated trading exchange having integrated quote risk monitoring and quote modification services is disclosed. The automated trading exchange is configured to receive orders and quotes, and have associated trading parameters such as a risk threshold. The automated trading exchange typically generates a trade by matching the received orders and quotes, where quotes belong to an overall quote group, to previously received orders and quotes. The automated trading exchange otherwise stores each of the received orders and quotes if a trade is not generated. The automated trading exchange then determines whether a quote has been filled as a result of the generated trade, and if so, determines a risk level and an aggregate risk level associated with said trade. The computer compares the aggregate risk level with the market-maker's risk threshold, and if the threshold is exceeded, automatically modifies at least one of the remaining quotes in the quote group.
