In Molecule, origin (sometimes called account origin) refers to the company you are trading as. For example, Experimental Energy might be trading under several different companies.
In other systems, origin may be called Legal Entity or Trading Entity.
Origin is a field on the Trades model. You can access it while entering a trade, under the "more" menu.
Origins must be set up by Molecule's CS team.
