Non-Subjective Valuing ©& is a computer-assisted valuing system for discovering both an entity's actual current societal monetary value and its contemporary monetary worth specifically to the inquiring individual person, group or corporation, providing a user with such target entity's retail and wholesale prices along with its true worth and specific value to the explorer, employing as yardstick the NORM, which is the hypothetical unit in any group that is accurately calculated to be both precisely average in every one of its collectively discoverable characteristics and its price, to which NORM yardstick the present invention compares any test unit in that group on a natural, quantified point basis to obtain such precise current monetary worth of any such test unit, employing a specially conceived, designed and explained organic application of inductive statistics, accurate sampling, central tendency, and statistical inference, for calculating; drawing scientifically valid conclusions about surveying a constantly and factually representative community (such as the United States, 1999, for example), combined with certain new discoveries and unique, novel processes, as set forth herein, enabling Non-Subjective Valuing ©& instantly and conclusively to empower a prospective trader objectively to compare the contemporary monetary values of any and all competing units in or out of any probed group, regardless of such competing units' respective current prices.

An online buying group (referred to herein as a "co-op") is formed for the specific purpose of purchasing a particular product at (102) by defining a start time, end time, critical mass, any minimum number of units offered, any maximum number of units offered, starting price and product cost curve. As data is gathered from buyers, by means of their making binding purchase offers, the co-op is modified at (108) using a pricing tool, so as to take into account for this market data in the definition of the price curve. A buyer chooses a product co-op of interest at (114). The buyer is presented with the following essential co-op information: current price, closing time, next price level (as defined by a price curve visibility window and the price curve) sufficient to entice the buyer to make an offer. Once a buyer has made up his mind, the decision must be made at (116) to offer a purchase price which includes the current price, guaranteeing availability if critical mass has been achieved, or to make an offer at a lower price range that can be accepted only if the co-op price drops to that level, which may not occur. Given a decision to make an offer at such lower price, the buyer enters such maximum price at which he is willing to purchase the product at (118). Should the current price drop to the level at which the offer was made, the price contingency is removed from such offer and assuming critical mass is achieved, the offer is accepted at at the close of the co-op at (122), and processed accordingly. Inventory is allocated to fulfill the accepted offer at (126) following the closing of the co-op at (124).

According to one embodiment of the disclosed invention, an apparatus determines a current price of a product for sale by the vending machine. It then determines, for the product, a price increment, a predetermined price, and a demand threshold, that are defined by data stored in at least one data table. A rate of units of the product that are sold are determined. The rate is compared with the demand threshold. Based on the comparison of the rate with the demand data, it is determined whether the new price should be greater than or less than the current price. The new price is set to the predetermined price if the new price should be greater than the current price. If the new price should be less than the current price, a price increment amount is subtracted from the current price to yield the new price. The determined new price is displayed.

A method and system are disclosed for automatically updating individual conditions associated with a pending conditional financial transaction. As the price of a financial instrument varies, a pending conditional financial transaction may be issued to cause the financial instrument to be bought or sold whenever its price satisfies certain specified conditions. In the field of common stock transactions, the disclosed method automatically updates a pending conditional sell order, called a stop loss order, upon the occurrence of several conditions, such as when the current stop loss order has expired, when the current price of one share of the stock has risen a predetermined percentage above the current stop loss value, or when the total value of all of the shares of the stock has increased beyond a predetermined percentage limit. When a stop loss order is updated, a new stop loss value is calculated based upon the current price and a percentage leeway in the price. The new stop loss order is then transmitted to an appropriate financial institution

The invention is in the field of using a computer implemented method to calculate and provide recommendations for stock share investment timing. The process gathers price and volume data of listed firms from as many stock markets as implemented, only condition being that those markets price data are available over the Internet, in order to be able to automate the process. Analysing and calculation methods used within the process differ from those used in typical technical stock analyses in that the invention takes advantage of the known price history and uses statistical mathematics to categorize the current price to a recommended action: "sell', "buy' or "hold', while the most famous technical analysing methods typically try to predict the share price in the near future. The clear benefits of the process are that, after being set up properly, the process does not need human intervention, except in rare special cases, and furthermore, the calculated results are very easy to interpret even by persons without much experience in stock investing. Performance statistics clearly show that remarkable increase in profit of stock share investments can be gained by using the recommendations. The method has been implemented in a form of WWW-service and it is usable globally via the Internet. The method has been donated as StockMapper.
