The present invention provides a method of displaying option market
information including establishing a communication link between a member
computer and a central computer, accessing option trading data from the
central computer through the member computer, and inputting at least one
signal to the member computer. The signal represents either an underlying
asset symbol or an option class symbol of an underlying asset. The method
further includes generating a display page listing option trading
information for a plurality of option series relating to at least one of
the entered underlying asset symbol and the entered option class symbol,
and displaying the plurality of option series on the display page such
that the option series having a strike price approximately equal to the
current trading price of the underlying asset is centrally positioned on
the display page. Additionally, a strike price and a first date indicator
can be input and the display page can list trading information for the
entered option and plurality of option series having at least a second
expiration date, the plurality of option series extending over a range of
strike prices, the range centrally positioned at the current trading
price of the underlying stock, the plurality of option series relating to
the at least one of the entered underlying asset symbol and the entered
option symbol. A further method of the invention includes generating a
display page listing option trading information for a month entered for
an underlying asset. A still further method of the invention includes
generating a display page listing option trading information for a strike
price entered for an underlying asset.
