Real Time FTS Position Manager
Self contained real time
FTS position manager cases are now available. These are
designed for small team projects that would run over a
course or subset of course time. Both fixed income and
equity cases are available. In these cases students are
introduced to working with day-to-day financial news on
the web, translate this news into understanding what the
yield curve is and how it influences financial markets,
translating this news to form a view of the market from
the perspective of a news trader, learning to consider a
range of market and trading microstructure issues.
Each project is designed
around self contained workbooks that are linked with the
Real Time FTS Position Manager. A comprehensive set of
online calculators are available as an aid to processing
real world data.
A more powerful version
of the Real Time Position will be available later in
Summer. This will run the existing cases plus a lot
more. It is designed so that the finer details
associated with financial market and trading
microstructures are preserved when learning from
personal trading experience.
