Common Symbology Mappings¶
This article provides tips to convert from your symbology to Everysk's format.
Global Equities¶
For global equities, append the MIC code for the exchange. US stocks require only the ticker.
| Your Symbology | Everysk Symbology |
|---|---|
| SIE GR Equities | SIE:XETR |
| 6758 JP Equities | 6758:XTKS |
| IBM Equities | IBM |
FX Forwards¶
The forward rate becomes part of the Everysk symbol. For example, the following contract from a client spreadsheet:
| Ticker | Position | Local Price |
|---|---|---|
| AUD_USD_5/30/2017 | 3,400,000 | 0.75 |
This contract establishes that AUD 3.4M will be bought with the sale of USD 2.55M on 30 May. If AUD is stronger on that date, the holder profits as they are only contractually required to sell USD 2.55M.
The equivalent Everysk representation:
| Symbol | Contracts/Shares | Aggregation Labels |
|---|---|---|
AUDUSD 20170530 0.75 |
3,400,000 |
Notice how the forward rate is embedded directly in the symbol.
