1. An apparatus comprising:
a memory;
at least one processor configured to:
receive data representing orders entered onto an electronic market;
determine a first difference between a price of a first order and a market price;
determine a second difference between a price of a second order and a market price;
display indicia representing the orders on a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface comprising a two-dimensional graph, including a first axis representing price and a second axis representing time,
wherein each of the indicia is disposed on the two-dimensional graph at a position in which a respective price of a respective order aligns to a price-value of the first axis, and a respective time of the respective order aligns to a time-value of the second axis;
wherein the indicia include a first icon and a second icon respectively corresponding to the first order and the second order;
adjust a visual characteristic of each of the first icon and the second icon to respectively correspond to changes in the first difference, and changes in the second difference; and
shift in real time the first icon and the second icon toward a first direction along the second axis of the graph as time progresses.
