Trade Blotter and Pricer Worksheets

 

The Credit Trader Blotter

 

Each deal is represented on a single line, enabling rapid trade entry, filtering and analysis and allowing users to view multiple trade types and underlying baskets together. It calculates price, Greeks and other risk metrics for each line item — for both open positions and hypothetical trades — allowing sophisticated analysis of trading and hedging strategies.

Credit Trader users can also easily define bespoke CDO baskets utilizing combinations of single names and constituents of standard indices. Choose the mapping method and weighted average method for each basket, and assign it a unique ID for use in the blotter.

 

Drill-Down Risk Reports

 

Comprehensive Risk Reports

Numerix Trader Applications’ risk-reporting tools include pre-built worksheets for monitoring and stress-testing sensitivities and exposures for a book of trades or a subset of deals.

Through versatile pivot tables and charts, users can analyze aggregate risk based on a variety of factors, providing the flexibility to drill down into trade details and offering in-depth transparency for complex instruments.
