Explanation
Grey = disconnected.
If connection to the host or price feed is lost, the colour turns grey. As J-Trader tries to
reconnect to the server, you will see the indicator light cycling, until it is set to green. If
the light doesn’t turn green, the connection has become unstable:
1 Click Exit to log off from J-Trader.
1 Try changing your network settings (page 5).
2 If this fails, contact your network administrator or IT support staff.
Opens links to customer-defined websites. If you need more links, please contact your
system administrator.
Gives a menu for displaying orders in a ticker-style layout, creating and calculating
strategies, listing orders, and submitting multiple orders to exchanges in a batch file.

Minimise All
Iconises all open windows. When you’ve selected the button, it toggles to Restore All, to
enable you to restore all iconised windows.
Managing Trading Windows & Desktops
You can create, rename and copy trading windows and “desktops”.
“Desktops” are saved selections of screens and instruments. By using multiple desktops, you can
switch rapidly between different trading environments. For example, if you trade bonds and STIRs,
you could have a desktop for each. When you next log in, J-Trader will automatically show the last
desktop you were using.
Follow these steps:
1 In J-Trader’s main screen, click the desktop or trading window you want to edit. It is then
highlighted in yellow.
