Steps:
1. Set up Company Profile
Settings>Company>Company Profile
a. As the physical trade contracts need to be linked to the Company Name, before you use the Physical Trades function, you may need to set up your company profile first (including parent and subsidiary company details).
The user can set up a company, or multiple companies, and the first company to input in the page has to be the Parent Company. A company can have many groups under its management, and many group members can be invited under each group. The data input by each group member can be shared to and used by other members in the same group. Please refer to Step 3. Set up Group for more details.
You may also notify MAF team (support@mafint.com) to assist you to set up your company profile, by filling in the attached file. |
Once the Company Profile Creator has login to the portal, please click on Settings>Company>Company Profile.
b. Please input the details (only fields with * are compulsory) and click on Save Details once done. Relevant fields input in this page will appear in the Physical Trades function for your convenience. Once members have been added to the same group as the Company Profile Creator, the members' Company Profile page will be auto filled according to that of the Company Profile Creator, so the members need not input the company profile on their own. Please refer to Step 3. Set up Group for more details.
For more information, please access Company Profile .
2. Input/Upload Physical Trades
You may choose to:
1. Manually input physical trades, please refer to below steps, or

bi General Information
Deal ID:Input is not necessary, once you have saved your deal/contract, Deal ID will automatically be generated
Deal No. *:A deal includes one or more purchase and sale contracts. All purchase and sale contracts allocated to the same deal number will be matched with each other to calculate the net positions and P/L. Deal number is also considered a portfolio/trading book, and can be found in the Portfolio page.
Deal Currency*:Select the deal currency for calculating the P/L of all contracts under the deal number. The deal currency selected here will be used to calculate the P/L of all the purchase and sale contracts allocated to the deal number, which may be different from the product currency (after you select your product, the product currency is automatically displayed in the Benchmark Pricing and MTM Pricing page). For example, if the deal currency is USD and the product currency is CNY, the system will also be able to automatically convert the products with CNY to USD according to the exchange rate of the day to calculate the P/L. You will thus be able to view the P/L calculations of the deal based on the different currencies in the portfolio page.
Contract No.:Every purchase and sale contract should have its own contract number
For Example:
Deal No.
Contract No. 1
Trade Execution No. 1.1

If you need to input Iron Ore Specifications details, please refer to Iron Ore Product Group - Specifications
ci. Benchmark Pricing* and MTM (Potential) Pricing* (in the next page) operate the same way, please refer to below:
Each contract should have two pricing methods, Benchmark and MTM (Potential) Pricing.
Benchmark Pricing is the price at which you buy or sell
MTM (Potential) Pricing is to price for inventory so if benchmark pricing is Buy, MTM pricing will be Sell to close the positions
Every deal’s MTM (Potential) Pricing will be the same.
Step 1:If there is tax rate, please input under Tax Rate (%), for example if tax rate is 13%, please input 13. If there is no tax rate, you may leave it empty. You may enter this page anytime to input/edit the tax rate, and the system will automatically calculate the P/L accordingly.
Step 2: The quantity will be filled automatically based on the quantity you have entered in the previous page.
Screenshot from previous page:
In the next page (Pricing page), the system will auto fill the quantity accordingly
Screenshot from pricing page:
Step 3:Please select your Pricing Mode
Definition: Benchmark/MTM Pricing Page - Description: (Only fields with * sign is compulsory; fields with ^ means that once you have selected the pricing mode, the relevant fields will be updated accordingly)
|
The following pricing modes apply for both Benchmark Pricing and MTM (Potential) Pricing:
i. Fixed Price: If your contract has fixed/actual price, please select FIX from the Pricing Mode drop down list and fill in the fixed/actual price
ii. Floating Price (no fixed price): If your contract has no fixed/actual price yet, you may choose to select an index (“Float/Average”, “Whole Month Average(WMA)”,”Spot“ or “Formula”) to benchmark the pricing of your trades, where data will be obtained automatically from the market data (integrated from various Exchange sources) in the system to calculate the P/L of your positions. Once the trades are executed and prices have been confirmed, you may proceed to Trade Execution to input the final actual quantity and price, which will be automatically updated in portfolios to calculate the P/L.
For example: for a purchase/sale contract, fixed price is not available yet so there is only a floating price. The benchmark price of the purchase contract uses LME products, and the sale contract - MTM (Potential) pricing uses SHFE products so there will be a difference in P/L. Once available, please fill in the actual price and the actual quantity to settle the contract accurately.
Please refer to below to determine the Pricing Mode to use when pricing your purchase and sale contracts:
You may click on the drop down list under Financial Instrument to determine the Product Type (forward/futures/spot/forex), and based on the Product Type, select the Pricing Mode (WMA/Float/Spot/Formula): a. If Product Type is FORWARD, please select FLOAT/AVE and input the Pricing Period (Pricing Start and Pricing End Date) only. For instance, LME 3M contract is specific to a certain start and end date. Some examples include LEAD 3M, ZINC 3M etc. b. If Product Type is Futures, please select WMA and input the Month and Year only. Some examples include LEAD, ZINC etc.
c. If Product Type is Forex or Spot, please select Spot and you do not need to input month, year or date. Some examples include LEAD 3M Rolling, ZINC CASH etc.
d. If Iron Ore products require formula pricing, please select Formula under Pricing Mode and refer to: Formula Pricing Guide |
Therefore, you must first understand the Product Type in order to select the correct Pricing Mode.
Example:Product is COPPER CATHODE FUTURES futures contract, so please select WMA as the Pricing Mode.
Step 4:After selecting the Pricing Mode, please click on the blue Calculate button. We would recommend you to use this button as you only need to fill in a few items and the system will fill in the rest of the items in this page on your behalf.
Step 5:After selecting the blue Calculate button, please select/input the product
and select the month/year, followed by Calculate. If the product’s Product Type is FORWARD, please input the Pricing Start Date and Pricing End Date instead.
If the Product Type is SPOT/FOREX, you do not need to input any month/year or date.
Step 6:Once done, the system will fill in the data accordingly and your contract’s P/L will be calculated based on your inputs.
Step 7: Premium/Discount
If your contract has Premium/Discount, the steps are similar to the steps mentioned above (FIX, WMA, FLOAT/AVE or SPOT). If there are no Premium/Discount, you may leave this empty and click on Next to proceed.
Premium:Positive value
Discount:Negative value
Summary: |
Fixed refers to fixed price. WMA represents the floating price of futures products, which follows the price change of the futures contract. WMA represents the floating price of forward products, which follows the price change of the forward contract. Spot is also a floating price, but it corresponds to the daily spot index price, and there is no futures contract. Depending on the structure of the contract, you can determine if it belongs to Float, WMA or Spot. If the Product Group is Iron Ore, you may select Formula to calculate the pricing. |
All paper and physical trades pricing logic is as follows: To determine which Pricing Mode to use, you may double click on the MAF Product ID/Product field to determine the "Product Type" (forward/futures/spot/forex):

Description (Only fields with * sign is compulsory)
Trade Execution ID:Input is not required, once you save your trade execution data, the Trade Execution ID will be generated automatically
Trade Execution No. *:Under each contract, there may be multiple trade executions due to different pricing methods and different transportation logistics. The trade execution number is used to distinguish each trade’s execution details. If there is only one trade execution, the trade execution number can be the contract number, this field can be input/edited directly in the table
DEAL QTY DSP: Refers to Quantity Discrepancy, there are times when the actual quantity of the purchase and sale contract cannot be matched 100%. For example, you purchase 1001 MT of goods and sold 1001.2 MT of the same goods. But the system is unable to determine if the difference in quantity is correct or due to an input error, so the DEAL QTY DSP will be highlighted in red to remind you to check for discrepancy. Please note that if the trade does not have Actual Quantity, the system will not check so it will not be highlighted in red.
Cases of DEAL QTY DSP in red:
The actual quantity for both purchase and sales contracts are not the same, or
Only the actual quantity for purchase contract is input, but not for the sale contract, and vice versa

Calculation formulas - If the relevant data has been entered, the system will automatically calculate these:
PRE-FINAL QTY = ACTUAL QUANTITY or CONTRACT QTY: If ACTUAL QTY has been input, ACTUAL QTY will be displayed. Otherwise, CONTRACT QTY will be displayed instead.
PRE-FINAL PRICE = (ACTUAL PRICE or ESTIMATED PRICE) + premium: If ACTUAL PRICE is input, ACTUAL PRICE will be displayed. Otherwise, if ESTIMATED PRICE is input, ESTIMATED PRICE will be displayed instead. It will then be added with PREMIUM to form PRE-FINAL PRICE. If both ACTUAL PRICE and ESTIMATED PRICE are not input yet, this field will remain empty
PRE-FINAL PRICE BEFORE TAX: PRE-FINAL PRICE/(1+tax rate) or CARGO VALUE BEFORE TAX / PRE-FINAL QTY
FINAL PRICE: ACTUAL PRICE + PREMIUM (if actual price has value)
CARGO VALUE = PRE-FINAL PRICE * PRE-FINAL QTY (this is offshore amount, sort of like purchase amount)
CARGO VALUE BEFORE TAX = CARGO VALUE * EXCHANGE RATE + CUSTOM TAX AMOUNT / (1+tax rate) eg cargo value before tax = cargo value (2k) * ex rate (5) + custom tax (10) [10010] / 1.05 (tax rate = 5%) = 9533.33
