The market information window provides most of the live data for the market and is where trading takes place. You can choose between different product types and hide/show columns you would like to display. Changes made to the filters are saved in a cookie in your browser and are thus available at next login. Local products will appear in a light blue color compared to XBID (cross-border intraday) products, which appear in a darker blue color. In the following screenshots below, we see Quarter-Hour products (QH) [QH-48 to QH-65], Half-Hour products (HH) [HH-25 to HH-40] and Power-Hour products (PH) respectively.
