FX Spots window

The "FX Spots" window is the main window for displaying spot prices in the Infront Professional Terminal. It is a grid consisting of the spots of your selection which can easily be customized.

Each spot in the grid consists of:

  • Name of currency cross
  • Button to view a chart of the spot
  • High/Low
  • Sell and buy price
  • Tick indicator to display positive/negative change on price

Currency setup

Before you can use the "FX Spots" window, you need to add the currency pairs you want to follow. The currency setup can be accessed by clicking the "+" sign in the spot grid or by clicking the "⋮" settings menu icon in the top right corner followed by "Edit currency pairs".

There are two ways to add a new cross rate to the grid: By typing in the cross in the top left field or by click on the available currencies in the window. Typing in a cross and pressing <ENTER> or clicking "Add" will move that cross to the "Selected currencies list". Typing in an unavailable cross, the field will turn red and adding it in incorrect order will make the field yellow. When selecting a cross by using the mouse unavailable, crosses will go from bold to normal.

FX Forwards window

The "FX Forwards" window gives you a quick overview of selected currency pairs.
