Capturing Precious Metal Forward Trades

Precious Metal Forward trades are captured using the FX Deal Station.

You first need to define the precious metal as a currency by choosing Configuration > Definitions > Currency Definition from Calypso Navigator, then define the precious metal and settlement currency as a currency pair also by choosing Configuration > Definitions > Currency Definition from Calypso Navigator.

Finally, from Calypso Navigator choose Trade > Foreign Exchange > FX Deal Station to capture trades. Help is available from that window.
