Search Bar
The Search Bar at the top of the KGI Crusoe platform—next to the Notification Ticker (Clock)—lets you search for any instrument in the database using a symbol, keyword, or contract month.
By default, the Search Box displays Recent Searches and Popular Instruments before you type anything. Left-clicking on any search result will open it in a new Quote Info module.

Hovering over any search result opens an additional menu, allowing you to launch that specific instrument or contract in a new Quote Info, Alerts, or Trade module.
You can also click and drag the Instrument into a new SuperDOM, Chart, Market Analyzer, or T&S (Time & Sales) module.

Searching In Modules
In addition to using the Search Bar, you can also search for and select new Instruments when opening nearly any market data or order entry module in the KGI Crusoe platform.

To change Instruments within a module, simply left-click the instrument name in the tab at the top-left—the search dropdown will then appear.

The Instrument Selector is available on all of the following modules in the KGI Crusoe platform:
T&S (Time & Sales)
Spread Matrix
