Compliance

  • Snapshots - Manage settings for capturing and archiving valuation data. Define parameters such as archive times, frequency, and lookback period for snapshots.
  • Trade Lock - Enable automatic trade locking by source or book. Set specific times for locking trades to maintain data integrity and uphold trading compliance.

Copy-Forward Settings

Automate the use of previous market data for curves, volatilities, and option prices when current data is unavailable, and designate the best source for mark data. See our Mark Levels help page for more information on mark levels.

Manage Fees, Edit Fee Names and create Fee Recommendations. Setup attributes like charge types, rates, and directions, applicable to trades as needed by your organization. These recommendations will be selectable by your team on the Trade Add/Edit pages.

ICE

  • ICE Trade Adapter - Set up your account’s access to ICE Trade Adapter. Configure essential settings such as username, password, sender ID, IP address, and port for seamless market data integration.
  • Trader Mapping - Link your traders to their ICE identifiers and optionally assign book tags. This mapping facilitates associating trading activities with specific trades and books in Molecule.

  • Access and manage inventory valuation configurations from this screen:

  • Add: Click the + button to add a new configuration.
  • Edit/Delete: Use the three-dot menu on the right side of the grid to edit or delete existing configurations. Fields include:
    • Commodity (required): Pick from an alphabetized list of commodity values.
    • Marking Formula (required): Enter the marking formula in a text field.
    • Asset (optional): Select from assets available to the logged-in user's account.

Products

View and edit custom fields associated with any of the Products listed. Use search or filters to find the Products you'd like to view or edit.

User Groups

Create user groups with preset roles and permissions, and add users to those groups. When users are added to a group, they automatically inherit the group roles and permissions, which are additive to their user-level settings. Users may belong to multiple groups. Removing a user from a group instantly revokes their group-specific roles, while retaining those assigned at the individual user level.
