There are three things that are different about our approach to the creation of simulations. They are:

1) We like to create simulations that geo-centric in focus. Meaning, we view the markets as global and simulations should have a global viewpoint. From the base or accounting currency, to the traded instruments. Anything that does not allow for this type of flexibility in creating simulations (in our opinion) misses the point.

2) Simulations should be dynamic as well as flexible. We see markets based on macro economic outcomes: Bull, Bear, Flat, Volatile and Flat/Bull. These five economic outcomes when combined with trading case-studies creates an unlimited variation for simulations.

3) We do not for one moment believe that we know what is best for your program. ALL OF OUR SIMULATION PLATFORMS have a Simulation Writer or method of developing and uploading a simulation. This affords our clients with the ability to create simulations that are aligned with their program(s) and learning objectives.
