Description

A Method and Apparatus on Keyboard in Cyber Stock Trading}

In the present invention, when a cyber securities trading (trading) transaction, each user has to enter a trade number, item number (code), quantity, and unit price fields in order to make a trade order on the buy or sell order window using a keyboard. Instead of using the virtual keyboard to enter automatically with only the mouse.

Stock Trading Order Process and Existing Problems -The existing problems along with the trading order process in cyber trading are as follows.

1) Four Input Items-In case of buy, if buy button is selected, buy item window is displayed, and then buy 4 items must be entered in order to transfer buy order data to main server. First, trading password, second, item number (code), third, purchase quantity, fourth, and purchase price.

2) Enter only numbers-All four items are numbers and no letters. Trading passwords are usually four digits, the item number (code) is currently five digits, and the number of purchases is usually between hundreds and thousands of stocks, each price ranges from a few hundred to hundreds of thousands of won. Therefore, the number of numbers that a user must enter in one order is about 18 characters (for example, password 4689, item code 05930 (Samsung Electronics), quantity of 100 shares, and quantity of 18 characters for 189,500).

3) Keyboard Input-To input the 18 numbers, input using the current keyboard. Problems caused by keyboard input should be visually alternating between the screen and the keyboard, and hand gestures between the mouse and the keyboard. Because there are four fields, you need to move at least four hands and eyes.

Looking at the process, enter the password keyboard → move the cursor to the item number column (move to the mouse, hand movements, eye movements required) → input the item number keyboard → move the cursor to the trading quantity field (move to the mouse, hand movements, eye movements) → trade Enter quantity → move cursor to unit price (Move to mouse, hand motion, eye movement required) → Enter unit price → select order transfer button (move to mouse, hand movement, eye movement required)

4) Time required for input-The time required for inputting the 18 numbers into four input fields takes about 20 to 30 seconds. However, in stock trading, one second is very important because the price changes momentarily. Investors may see losses or loss of profit if the bid price changes due to time-consuming order entry. In addition, the securities company employee and the date radar should place orders several times a day, but even if the order input method or time is slightly improved, the frequency of use is very effective.

Improvements -The above-mentioned improvement proposals to solve the existing problems mentioned above at once and to enter the trading order more quickly and easily during the cyber trading transaction are as follows.

1) Input all data with mouse only. -It is very cumbersome for the user to enter the mouse and keyboard several times. In order to minimize this problem, the hand and eye movements are minimized by allowing all sales order numbers to be entered with the mouse only.

2) Design of a virtual keyboard-A virtual keyboard has a number plate embedded in the trading order window. When a user enters a purchase order, the number is automatically entered in the text box by clicking the number plate with the mouse.

3) Enter a large number of numbers with a single click-On the virtual keyboard, you can double-click a hundred units in addition to tens of units, and you can enter three to four numbers from one hundred to one thousand at a time with the right mouse. Enter a lot of numbers.

Existing Status -Figure 1 shows the existing purchase order window. The user inputs a number using the keyboard in the transaction password, item number (code), purchase quantity, and the purchase price. 2 shows a conventional sell order window. It has the same fields as the Buy Order window, so there is no difference between entering Buy and Sell orders.

In addition, the amount of stock trading using cyber trading in 2000 was 1,939 trillion won, with an average order amount of 386 million won per year, and the total number of cyber trading is 5,233 million cases per year. Therefore, the existing keyboard input method has a problem that the user has to spend a lot of time and effort to input the stock trading order, there is a lot of losses in the national economic.

The purpose of the present invention is to solve all the above-mentioned problems by using the mouse on the virtual keyboard trading password, item number (code), the number of purchases, the number of purchase means that each user enters the existing keyboard at the time of the trading order of cyber trading To automatically and quickly type.

Therefore, the user does not need to change the mouse and keyboard several times, and does not need to visually switch between the order window and the keyboard. Therefore, the user can place a trade order with simpler operation. can do.
