Derivatives having demand-based, adjustable returns, and trading exchange therefor

Methods and systems for replicating derivatives strategies and for trading derivatives strategies in a demand-based trading market are described. In one embodiment, a set of contingent claims are created to replicate a derivatives strategy. One or more parameters of a contingent claim in the replication set may be determined as a function of one or more parameters of a derivatives strategy and an outcome of the event. An investment amount for a contingent claim in the replication set may be determined as a function of one or more parameters of the contingent claim and a total amount invested in a demand-based auction. In other embodiments, derivatives strategies and/or financial products are enabled to be traded in a demand-based auction and are offered to customers and/or traded in the auction. In another embodiment, a derivatives strategy is replicated by a set of one or more digitals or digital options by determining one or more parameters of the digitals or digital options in the replication set as a function of one or more parameters of the derivatives strategy.
