Quick Guide to Dashboard and Order Entry Form

The headline Dashboard GBP quotes represent the best current bid and offer across all pack sizes converted to a price per 12x75cl. The Dashboard can also display and be operated in EUR per 75cl bottle by selecting the appropriate option within the LiveTrade tab on My Profile.

A few features:

  • click on a wine's critic score to open a window showing tasting notes and price history
  • click on the last trade price to open a window showing price history
  • click on the star symbol to add to your Watchlist
  • click anywhere else along the wine's row to open the Order Entry Form; the current Order Book is displayed at the top of the form

Dashboard prices are displayed as all-inclusive prices showing exactly what a user will pay or receive if they deal; we refer to this as MarketView. When you enter a target price in MarketView you simply enter the net amount you wish to pay/receive. We will adjust your net target by our (very competitive) margin and publish this adjusted price. You will clearly see both your input target price and the published price on the Order Entry Form and, when you have submitted it, in the Order Book.

(n.b. It is possible to view prices as they would appear on an exchange which charges commission to both buyer and seller; we refer to this as Exchange View. Market View and Exchange View are just two equivalent ways of expressing the same prices. The vast majority of users prefer the convenience of Market View since they can immediately see the fully inclusive price they will pay/receive, but if you would like to switch to Exchange View then please get in touch).

The best bid and offer in the Order Book for each pack-size are reflected on the individual wine pages on our website (In Bond tab only). These are always expressed as all-inclusive (i.e. MarketView) prices. For instant sales and purchases at the prevailing quote, dealing directly from these pages can be a convenient alternative to the Dashboard.

If you are buying, try to be as flexible as possible with the Delivery Timeframe. Selecting “Any” will give your bid the best chance of success.

If you need to edit/delete a bid or offer just go to the appropriate tab on the Dashboard homepage.

The Portfolio tab shows all the LiveTrade wines in your Bordeaux Index Reserves (across all accounts if you have more than one). Click on the appropriate Trade button to open an Order Entry Form for that wine.

Notifications: you can opt to be notified by email when prices change or a trade occurs on selected wines. To set your preferences go to the LiveTrade tab on My Profile.
