- This simulation of the Wholesale Order entry on a Strategy instrument has been recorded using two example members, 99101 as a trade initiator and 99100 as a trade reactor

- Let's start by adding the Wholesale Order and Wholesale Monitor to the initiator's current desk

- If needed, you can costumise columns be rescaling or removing any optional fields from the Clearing Data area

- Here, the Market and Contract will need to be selected 

- This "blue" number next to Quantity will tell you the minimum accepted quantity for this specific contract

- You will need to confirm whether the order is for an outright instrument or for a strategy

- The "Wizard" will help you to both create strategies and provide a selection of all possible strategy types

- The Price and Quantity should be filled for each leg. If the leg is a SELL side, the Offer Quantity has to be populated. If the leg is the BUY side, the Bid Quantity will need to be populated

- The overall price is calculated by taking the difference between the BUY leg minus the SELL leg, taking into consideration the required ratio. In this example: (0.02 x 2) - 0.02 = 0.02

- Then confirm the counterparty for each leg

- It should be noted that the Quantity should take in consideration the ratio of the strategy, in this case it should be doubled

- Mandatory fields for Clearing Data will then need to be filled

- Once confirmed, the Wholesale Order will be succesfully created

- The Wholesale Monitor will show a row for each counterparty that has been identified as a required reactor. The status is currently in Waiting since counterparties haven't yet reacted

- The relevant leg of the transaction will not be visible in the Wholesale Monitor of the counterparty, the reactor (99100)

- Clicking on each trade leg, you will see that most of the fields have automatically been populated with  the expected values. Any missing mandatory fields will have to be completed

- Once all reactors have responsed, the transaction is then complete and the trade fully executed
