Trading Simulators

Welcome to the Future of Experiential Financial Learning

Step into a revolutionary experiential learning environment where financial markets, banking, and broader financial services come alive through cutting-edge simulation technology.

Our immersive simulators place participants at the centre of real-world financial scenarios, from executing complex trades and managing investment portfolios to conducting M&A deals, navigating regulatory compliance, and analysing market risks. These experiences are enriched by expert practitioners who bridge theory and practice, ensuring learning is relevant, applied, and impactful.

How We Embed Simulations into Training

Our simulations are not standalone products; they are fully integrated into training programs to drive deeper learning. We design our training to blend simulation-based experiences with instructor-led debriefs, case studies, and structured learning pathways. This ensures participants gain both theoretical knowledge and practical skills.

• • Pre-Simulation Learning: Participants receive foundational knowledge to prepare for the experience.
• • Live Simulation: Hands-on engagement in real-world financial scenarios.
• • Data-Driven Debrief: A structured review session where participants receive detailed performance analysis, uncovering strengths and pinpointing areas for improvement. Our debriefs leverage real-time data insights, enabling learners to understand decision-making outcomes, evaluate risk assessment skills, and refine strategies based on factual evidence.
• • Business Impact & Knowledge Gaps: The insights derived from simulations help businesses identify skill gaps, improve workforce competency, and tailor ongoing training initiatives to address specific development areas.
• • Ongoing Development: Continuous feedback loops ensure long-term skill retention and professional growth.

Volcube

Simulate | Trade | Master the Markets

Our proprietary options trading platform takes simulation to another level, accelerating trading competence and understanding.

Unique in its gamification, Volcube caters for all levels of experience with a virtually unlimited number of simulations to support students practice and revise the principles and application of derivatives from a hedger or speculator perspective and, most importantly, provides the technically advanced insight of the market makers’ perspective within the trading simulations.

“[Since 2020,] our trainee traders have used Volcube to learn about options and volatility trading. We feel Volcube’s realistic market simulator combined with online learning tools is a really efficient and modern way for our trainees to learn to trade.” Jean F., Senior Trader, Mako Global.

Unlike other simulators, through its gamification, Volcube gives real-time guidance, insights and feedback to students, enabling them to continue their learning outside of the formal classroom.

Students assume the position of a market maker, gaining an understanding of option pricing and market flow as the simulator creates market scenarios from an algorithm. Enabling this independent practice outside of normal market hours is what sets our users apart, significantly accelerating their practical understanding of options trading.

Volcube is a full 360 of options knowledge and practice, students must understand the intricacies of pricing options, risk management and market flow in order to succeed. The feedback is designed for progression and comes with qualitative analyses and not just quantitative data.

Topics covered include:

• • Market making & pricing options
• • Options trading strategies
• • Black-Scholes pricing model
• • The Greeks & general risk management
• • Pay-off profiles
• • Portfolio construction
• • Hedging using futures and options strategies
