How does Novaex capture trades from different sources?

Novaex ingests trades from multiple sources including broker feeds, exchange connections (LME and MCX), and manual entry. Each trade is automatically validated against configurable business rules and booked into the unified trade book with full audit trail.

What is intelligent trade matching?

Intelligent matching automatically links related trades — for example, matching a physical copper purchase with its corresponding LME hedge based on metal, quantity, delivery period, and other configurable parameters. This replaces manual spreadsheet-based reconciliation.

How much time can automated trade capture save?

Clients can expect up to 80% reduction in time spent on trade reconciliation. Automated capture eliminates manual re-keying errors, while continuous matching surfaces exceptions in real-time rather than at month-end.

Trade Capture

Capture Once. Reconcile Continuously. Close Faster.

Commodity trade capture is fragmented across brokers, exchanges, and internal systems. Manual entry causes errors, delayed booking, and month-end reconciliation nightmares. Novaex captures trades from every source, auto-matches physical and financial positions, and reconciles in real-time.

The Reconciliation Nightmare

Physical trades sit in one system, financial hedges in another, and FX deals in a spreadsheet. Every trade is re-keyed multiple times across systems, and each re-entry is a chance for error. By month-end, operations teams spend days manually reconciling broker confirmations against internal books, hunting down mismatches that could have been caught on day one. The cost is not just time — it is delayed reporting, inaccurate P&L, and audit risk.
