LMETrader

What is LMETrader

LMEtrader is a white-label version of the TT platform and replaces the exchange-provided LMEselect software. It provides real-time market data, trade execution, and order management for traders and member administrators, with features for both web and mobile use.

Note LMEtrader offers slightly reduced functionality compared to TT Standard, with no access to TT Pro, even if the Trade Mode is set to TT Pro.
