Task

You can start the way you please. Transact whatever you like, the way you like. Check your financials at the start, as well as during the simulation. Likewise applies to the deals you enter into.
At a certain moment you will be assessed. You will be raised questions to see whether how much feeling for numbers you have and to what extend you are aware of your current situation.

Objective

The aim of this simulation is to assess your skills as a trader and, thus to see whether your competences are fit for purpose.

Conclusion

Traders’ competences can be modeled by FAUC (Framework for acting under uncertainty and complexity). Traders have to be creative, resilient, adaptive, alert and entrepreneurial. In addition, they have to have a feeling for numbers and be good in calculating. Besides, traders have to be decisive, they should be daring to make decisions, under pressure, and, thus, in a timely manner.
