IMOS On-Prem - Trade Route


Requires the Trading & Risk module or Market Data Access license. You must have the Trade Route Module Right selected.

Trade Routes are typically defined by the market (by the data provider) or by your internal risk management team. Trade Routes are based on Vessel Type and have different units of measure ($/day, $/ton, $/mt, or Worldscale), usually based on the area or the start and endpoints of the itinerary.

In the Trading module center , under Data, click Trade Route.

The trade routes are universal for all markets specified as Freight.

Before a Trade Route is defined, ensure that the Market and Market Index exist for the specific route.

Note: Ensure that the values in the "Settlement Route“ and "Spot Route“ columns match the Baltic route ID.

  1. Select the Calculated check box.

    • Factor1 * Route1 +/- Factor2 * Route2 +/- Factor3 * Route3 

      • Example: 0.6 * 4TC_P - 0.4 * P17A

    • Factor1 * $ / TonRoute - Factor2 * BunkerSymbol1 - Factor3 * BunkerSymbol2 - Factor4
