1. A computer-implemented method for facilitating an object exchange via a networked system, the method comprising:
receiving, by a processor, from another user's computing device through a network interface, another user's exchange condition associated with another user's object wherein a user's exchange condition associated with a user's object has already been received to initiate an automatic exchange process;
wherein the exchange condition includes an exchange stop condition that defines when to stop automatic repetition of object exchanges, and
wherein the exchange stop condition persists after completion of an exchange to enable continuous automatic exchanges until the exchange stop condition is met;
in response to a matching process that identifies, in accordance with the another user's exchange condition, the user's object as an exchange object, causing the another user's computing device to display the user's object;
receiving, from the another user's computing device a selection of the user's object as an exchange destination object in an exchange between the user and the another user in which an execution of an exchange program is triggered due to the another user's exchange condition wherein the execution is not triggered due to the user's exchange condition;
determining whether the exchange stop condition associated with the exchange condition has been met;
in response to determining that the exchange stop condition has not been met, automatically continuing the automatic exchange process; and
determining that an exchange destination price of the user's object is lower than an exchange source price of the another user's object;
in response to determining that the exchange destination price is lower than the exchange source price, executing, by the processor, the exchange through the networked system, without a financial transaction between the another user owning the another user's object and the user owning the user's object.
