RE:          New Moneychanger Application

 

 

The CME Clearing House is proud to announce that the new Web-based Moneychanger system will be launched on August 27^th.   The new Web-based-user interface will replace the bulletin board system that is currently used. On this date, the bulletin board system will no longer be accessible for any Moneychanger trades.

 

The new Web based interface uses secure server technology. This technology will encrypt and authenticate each corresponding trade and each fill.   So you can feel confident that your orders are being handled securely.

 

Please read the enclosed User Guide. This guide will present step by step instructions on how to logon, how to enter, delete and modify trades, and how to view rates and view past orders.

 

Your current user ID and logon will not change. You simply need to enter your existing logon information at the new logon screen:

 

        ·         Your user ID begins with FX and ends with your firm’s clearing number.  It’s important that you enter the ‘FX’ in capitals.

        ·         Your password is your existing MoneyChanger password, all in lower-case letters.

All setup bank information will not change.

 

Beginning Friday August 13^th and continuing through Wednesday August 25^th, your firm may test the new application.  You may enter orders, review fills, etc.  

 

 

During this period these orders will not be processed, this is just for testing.  It is important that your firm become familiar with the new system.

 

 

Beginning Friday August 27^th, the new system will be live, and orders entered into it will be filled.

 

 

The Web address for the new application is:

 https://cme5.cam-colo.bbnplanet.com/cgi-bin/MoneyChanger/moneylogin.cgi

 

Shortly after launch, we will make a minor change to this address.  We will notify you at that time of this change.

 

 

When you use your browser to go to this Web address, a window will pop up on your screen into which you enter your user ID and password.

 

 

The Clearing House is available to answer any questions regarding Moneychanger.  Please call Dana Laas at (312) 454-5312 or Tim Golomb at (312) 930-3194.
