We believe that trading should be your primary concern, not worrying about your trading platform or how to set it up. With that goal in mind, MTrade has been designed to be easy to access and configure.

First, since MTrade is a browser-based system, you need to make sure that your computer and your prefered browser meet certain minimum requirements. Those minimums are as follows:

  • PC - A Pentium® (or comparable) or faster processor.
  • Operating System - Windows® 95/98/NT/2000/XP or Apple Macintosh OS 9.0 or higher.
  • Browser - Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5.0 or Netscape Navigator 4.7 or higher. Your encryption level needs to be set at 128-bit or higher.

Next, to access the MTrade web site, make sure you are connected to the internet and then enter https://mtrade.manfinancial.com into your brower's address bar. Note that the "s" in https is required as MTrade uses 128-bit encryption technology. Having successfully completed this step, you will be presented with a logon screen. Simply enter your user name and password, click on the "Logon" button and you'll be viewing your defaulted display page.

Congratulations! You've just accessed MTrade.

Once you have done so, you can further enhance your trading experience by editing your profile and setting up the quote watch feature.

Accessing the profile page allows you to set the following default options:

  • symbol for a new order. This is selectable from a list of all available contracts that can be traded via the MTrade system.
  • price type. Choose from LMT, MIT, MKT, MOC, MOO, or STP.

  • quantity traded.
  • time in force. Choose from DAY, GTC or GTD.
  • month format. You can either use 3-character months or the single character symbol.
  • the default start page. Choose from any of the order entry pages or either of the orders pages.

Accessing the quote watch page allows you to set up your quote watch contracts so you can track up to five contracts simultaneously. In addition, once your quote watch is set up, you can trade your tracked contacts with ease by initiating a trade directly from this page. Simply select a contract and click on the "new order" button.
