Traded Spreads

An exchange-traded spread is a contract to buy or sell multiple futures or options contracts at one time, rather than buying or selling individually.

Exchange Traded Spreads

Add a Traded Spread

  3. Click Add to Workspace.

    Result
    : If this is the first panel added to the workspace, the panel will automatically fill the entire workspace. If it is not the first panel, you must choose a position on the workspace where the panel will reside.

    As you move your cursor over the workspace, you will be able to preview the available positions where you can drop the panel into place. The workspace can be split either horizontally or vertically to create space for the new panel.
  4. Click the position on your workspace where you want to drop the panel.
