Simulations & Games
Traditional training programs focus on classes, seminars and articles but there is a trend towards more immersive learning experiences which combine simulations/practice and real-time feedback through advanced digital platforms. As Brett Steenbarger author of "Enhancing Trader Performance" states in his book: "There will be the integration of education and training through realistic simulation, detailed performance metric to track performance and archives of past market data to replay-and re-trade markets for concentrated practice."
RPanda training solutions has developed a number of proprietary commodity trading simulation programs that focused on training and assessing key trading/commercial skills and competencies. Our trading simulation software give students and participants a hands-on experience in commercial and trading decision making and can be deployed as a standalone product or combined with other training modules delivered by RPanda or as part of training package to instructors.
Multi-day Trader Game
This game uses real market data across number of commodities in either 4 week or 4 month intervals. This game allows participants to apply their skills to analyze, execute and risk manage commodity financial positions. The multi-day trader game is best combined with live or recorded lectures. There are instructor lead weekly feedback and discussion sessions very similar to a real commodity trading group
Live Trader Game
The Live Trader Game is delivered either as a single game (trader assessment tool), or as multi-session game focused on developing skills in key aspects of physical commodity trading. The Live Trading Game puts the participants in the seat of a physical commodity trader where they can buy storage, transport, or charter a ship to capture market arbitrage across number of commodities
