ABSTRACT:
Managing and evaluating commodities pricing, in one embodiment, includes retrieving and summing one or more price data sets exchanged between a buyer and seller agent in a specified time period. Additionally, metric data indicative of market prices for commodities indicated by the retrieved price data sets are summed. The summed totals are then compared to generate a comparison value. In another embodiment, one or more price data sets in a specified time period are retrieved, wherein commodities indicated by the price data sets meet a specified criterion. The retrieved price data sets and metric data indicative of market prices for the indicated commodities are summed and compared. In another embodiment, price data in one or more requests for quote are compared with metric data to normalize quoted prices. Accordingly, multi-value cross compilation of sales transactions and metric data for evaluation of commodities pricing is achieved.
