How to Book a Trade via NLP

One of the many awesome things about Molecule is how easy the system is to use, and booking a trade using NLP (Natural Language Processing) is a great example of that. Trades that are executed on the ICE and CME exchanges automatically flow into the system, but if you do need to book a trade manually, here's how to get started:

  • You'll be taken to the Trades screen as soon as you log into your Molecule account. On the top left corner, you will see a + TRADE:
  • Click on the sign to open up a text box where you can type the trade you would like to book:
  • Notice there is a drop-down menu below the text box where you can specify the type of trade you are booking. There is also an outline for how to input your trade to the right of the menu. This outline will update depending on your selection to show how each trade needs to be booked. You can find a few examples below:

Futures

Forwards/Swaps

*Note: If you need to fill out more information regarding the trade, you can click on the drop-down arrow highlighted below to do so:
