Global Trader Cloud -uniquely different

Global Trader Cloud is different from other trading simulations.

Developed by the pioneers and leaders in the creation and application of financial simulations, GTC was purpose-built from the outset as a multi-asset-class simulation platform, covering all traded markets and products at any level.

From equities. FX, and commodities to complex derivatives and crypto, GTC covers all instruments in one seamless, integrated platform.

Look at some of Global Trader’s unique capabilities:

All financial markets

GTC handles equities, fixed income, FX, credit, commodities, crypto, and derivatives.

With its sophisticated pricing algorithms, GTC accurately reflects the behavior of complex financial products and inter-related instruments, so users can practice hedging and risk management strategies.

All financial instruments

GTC covers cash instruments like bills and FX, securities like equities, government and corporate bonds, and a wide range of derivatives – in any combination.

Any scenario or market environment

GTC can create any economic environment or scenario involving the progression of rates, price developments and news stories.

From the mundane to the incredible, GTC can simulate the exact conditions that participants can experience or learn from.

Multi-currency

GTC simulates trading on the global financial markets, with real-time consolidation to a single functional currency.

So users can experience the opportunities and issues arising, for example, when a US investor buys or sells German Bunds or Japanese equities.

Strategic or tactical

GTC can cope with intensive short-term tactical simulations (covering just a day) or long-term strategic simulations (covering several months or years).

This allows users to learn about the different issues arising from these very different timescales.

Teams

Participants can be organized into teams, with individuals assigned distinct roles but working towards a common objective.

A user can easily switch between their own individual metrics and those of the team as a whole.

Amazing Analytical Features

With industrial-strength pricing tools, powerful analytics, risk management measures, and an amazing degree of flexibility, Global Trader Cloud is much more than a trading simulation.

From basic trading to the construction of structured products, GTC allows users to put theory into practice in a realistic and immersive setting that is progressively challenging.

Amazing Analytical Features
AI-Based Trade Advisor

GTC features an AI-based Trade Advisor that conducts an in-depth and perceptive analysis of each user’s trading activity, and presents an incisive multi-page report personalized for each and every individual taking part.

Real-time risk management

GTC continuously monitors risk exposure in real-time, looking at each user’s portfolio-wide exposure to market risk, and translates this into easy-to-understand risk metrics expressed in monetary terms.

Multi-dimensional performance appraisal

GTC appraises users across multiple dimensions and consolidates the overall assessment into a single metric that combines each of the contributory factors.

In-Depth Analytics

GTC includes advanced analytics including profit attribution and risk heatmaps. These allow users to probe deeply into every aspect of their trading activity.

Every single metric is recorded, with each simulation typically logging over three million items of data covering every aspect of user and team performance.
