LAUNCH APPLICATIONS

The old Autobahn FX housed all functionality in one ‘Application’, whereas the
new Autobahn FX is far more fluid and flexible with each individual
functionality existing in its own ‘Application’. You can open or access these
applications in multiple ways.

DOCK APPS TOGETHER

You may drag and drop the screens to build your own applications layout that
fits your needs:

 * Just click and hold the tab header or windows header, and drag the window
   onto another window until the docking menu appears in the middle of the
   window.
 * The anchor icons in the middle of the target window or application will help
   to allocate the place of new window inside the target window, i.e. if you
   hover over the icon on the right, it will highlight the right half of the
   window and if you let go then the application will appear side by side.
   Alternatively if you hover over the icon in the middle then it will overlap
   the applications as two separate tabs.
 * Resize the individual applications within the single window dragging the
   border between the applications.

FX SPOT & OUTRIGHTS

Once you start the FX Spot & Outright application for the first time you will
see a small tip popup helping you use the new screen. The input field at the
bottom is smart and allows you add currency pairs in a couple of different ways.

 1. You may enter just the currency pair symbol e.g “EURUSD”, or enter it
    together with amount and value date, e.g. “EURUSD 1m 2w”. The autocomplete
    functionality and suggestion list will help you to do it faster.
 2. Alternatively you can use shortcuts, like G10 or METALS to add a predefined
    set of currency pairs.

Smart input bar



NEW WAYS TO VIEW YOUR SPOT & OUTRIGHT PRICES

Within the new FX Spot & Outright application there are 3 different views
depending on your preference:

MULTI TILE VIEW

The classic Multi tile mode, which you will be familiar with from the old
Autobahn FX platform.



SINGLE TILE VIEW

The Single-tile view with Market Colour Panel which allows you to view the
currencies in a more compact list view whilst also giving an indication of the
market activity in that specific pair and the ability to execute on a tile.



GRID VIEW

The compact Grid view if you wish to keep the view to an absolute minimum to
maximize space for other applications.




PREFERENCES

There is also the ability to configure the application to suit you best:

 1. At latest Trading allows you to trade at the latest rate at the moment of
    trade acceptance. This gives you the benefit of avoiding stale quote trade
    rejections but means the rate filled can be different from what you see on
    the screen at time of clicking.
 2. Suppress Trade Affirmation gives you the ability to suppress the pop out box
    upon execution and replace it instead with a small affirmation popup.
 3. You may select Preferred Rate – the rate that is shown in the blue box,
    either the spot rate or the all-in rate.

FX SWAP GRID

 * The new Swap Grid replaces the old ‘Basic Swap’ functionality and you will
   notice a total revamp, now with the ability to show multiple currency pairs
   all in one clear and compact view.
 * This new view also allows quicker trading with the ability to trade directly
   on the grid (whilst still retaining the option for the pop up trading window
   if preferred).
 * Furthermore you can now create a bespoke pricing grid by inputting both the
   near and far dates, particularly useful for NDFs.




FX SWAP PRICER

The new Swap Pricer replaces the old ‘Advanced Swap’ window and whilst we have
tried to keep this as familiar as possible we have now added the ability to
trade directly on the rates for those that want quicker and simpler execution.

exotics) and packed with handy features like strips, product templates and more!
