Return to Overview

When creating your own market data, you are required to input its main details and historical data.

Under 'Product Type', you are required to select either “Futures”, “Forwards”, “Spot FX” (Spot Foreign Exchange) or “Fundamental”. Each product type will require filling in of different columns in the table.

While 'Date' and 'Settlement' are required fields for all product types, the rest are optional except for:

• 'Product Type' = “Futures”

  • Hence the need to fill in “Month” (MM) + “Year” (YYYY)

• 'Product Type' = “Forwards”

  • Hence the need to fill in “Valuation Date” (input format is based on your account's setting. Click here to learn more)
