I use "Import variation from ascii" option to import the changes. For some of the scenarios the interest rate turns negative(stress scenarios say for example -10% movement from current interest rate). I would like the change to be floored to zero (e.g. if the market rate is 4.5% and my scenario is -5.0% then the applied scenario should be 0% i.e. max(0,market rate + scenario)). I have tried the Floor option in Var component analysis part but it did not serve the purpose. Can anybody suggest the best way forward in this case. </p> <p>Thanks<br /> NP </p> http://forum.murexusers.org/topic/documentation-on-simulation#post-69 Fri, 29 Jan 2010 07:23:22 +0000 Markus Linke 69@http://forum.murexusers.org/ <p>sorry, only F1 ... we don't share documents in the group due to copyright restrictions. </p> http://forum.murexusers.org/topic/somebody-out-there#post-68 Fri, 29 Jan 2010 07:22:38 +0000 Markus Linke 68@http://forum.murexusers.org/ <p>the discussion comes up every now and then if a board would be better than a mailing list.

So far we have:</p> <p>fixed port for the file server<br /> fixed port for the hub (giving client access to the xml server and Mx)</p> <p>however a netstat scan reveals every time we open up a new user session, we get a random port connection. Sniffing the TCP packets it looks like Murex is using this for RMI. Furter googling on RMI shows that RMI uses two ports. One is fixed (for our file server, the other is random). Has anyone come up against a similar problem? If so how did you resolve the random port?</p> <p>Note we are running Murex 2.2.11 (non mainstream) on Solaris box.</p> <p>Thanks in advance,<br /> David </p> http://forum.murexusers.org/topic/problems-with-transaction-purge#post-36 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 10:28:54 +0000 chrisjej 36@http://forum.murexusers.org/ <p>We are using the "Purge : Transaction tables" to test out a planned transaction purge.

I think Intraday and EOD processes are the same. I've been migrating data capture from Reuters Traders for Commodities (Kobra 3000 Xtra) to DSS. Setting up extraction lists, and report templates is pretty easy. I extract the data as CSV format, which can easilly be saved as Excel, or loaded via FTP into a database in it's raw csv format.<br /> There's a few data issues with DSS compared to Reuters Trader for Commodities, but I'm hoping to get these problems resolved with the people at datascope.<br /> Let me know what kind of thing you want to know about the EOD data and I'll have a look into it.</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Guy </p> http://forum.murexusers.org/topic/this-forum#post-34 Fri, 29 Aug 2008 06:43:06 +0000 Markus Linke 34@http://forum.murexusers.org/ <p>Have a look at the new jobboard at <a href="http://jobs.murexusers.org" rel="nofollow">http://jobs.murexusers.org</a> </p>
