Commodities Trader is a dynamic
online trading simulation for all kinds of commodities
and energy products. Users must deal with fluctuating
supply and demand, which can vary in size from
month to month. For example, an aromatics producer
may need to buy benzene as a raw product and sell
styrene as the end-product, resulting in financial
exposure to the market prices of both products.
To manage these kinds of risks, users can execute spot, forward, swap and option transactions
to hedge their position and mitigate the effect
of changing market prices.
Commodities Trader illustrates
these issues by giving users hands-on experience
of the risks involved, and first-hand practice
in managing the problems effectively.
The simulation adds excitement because it runs interactively and
in real-time. When the cost of
raw materials rises and demand falls, users must
act quickly and decisively to avoid losing money.
Commodities Trader provides a uniquely
effective learning opportunity, condensing months
or even years of events into a short but intensive
experience.
