# Decisions on the data that runs the trade

The same platform that runs your contracts, customs, and cash also tells you what to trade and what to hedge. Signals, pre-trade analytics, and cash-flow forecasts — built on your live operational data, not a downstream BI snapshot.

## How Phlo Systems solves this

### Trade Signals — Long / Short

Quantitative signals on commodity prices, basis, and spreads built from your physical book, exchange data, and macro inputs. Surfaces directional and relative-value ideas alongside the desk's existing exposure.

### Pre-Trade Analytics

Model a trade before it's placed. Simulate margin, P&L, basis risk, and cash-flow impact on the live book in real time, with a side-by-side compare against alternative legs.

### Cash-Flow Forecasts

Multi-month cash-flow projection across contracts, settlements, finance facilities, and customs duty payments. Treasurers and CFOs see what's coming — not just what cleared.

### Monte Carlo Risk Simulation

Ten thousand price-path simulations stress-test the portfolio against historical and hypothetical market scenarios. VaR, CVaR and tail-risk analysis on the live exposure.

### CaptainClear: HS Code Classification

AI engine trained on millions of commodity classifications. Maps product descriptions to 10-digit HS codes across 97 tariff chapters — the same engine powering customs-compliance.ai.

### Anomaly Detection

Flag unusual trade patterns, sanctions matches and valuation outliers in real time. Reduces false positives versus rules-based screening so reviewers spend their day on the real exceptions.

### Powered by Phlo Trade Intelligence

Built on the same data that runs your operations. Signals on the desk, simulation before trades go on, cash-flow visibility for treasury — all on the live book, not a snapshot.
