"HELPED US MAP THE THEORETICAL KNOWLEDGE TAUGHT IN CLASS WITH ITS PRACTICAL IMPLICATION"

The theoretical knowledge I acquired by taking up the course Financial Markets and Technology helped me enrich my financial domain business acumen on capital markets, trading life cycle, risk management and algorithmic trading. The live scenarios highlighted during the classroom discussion helped us to understand the subject better. The most important aspect of the course was the Epi-Trade® LIVE Simulation which helped us map the theoretical knowledge taught in class with its practical implication. We had a demo trading session during the class-room session which gave us a broader picture of what is the underlying logic behind a stock exchange. Questions such as how we trade, when to put a stop-loss order, how to arbitrage, when do investors make loss/gain, what is market depth and many more such questions became clearer. The Epi-Trade® LIVE System was indeed helpful and it behaved as an exact replica as a stock market. The system was very efficient and could handle live trading for approximate 50-70 people. We could easily trade without any glitches in the trading process in a time bound manner. It is highly essential to enhance your domain skills and on the same time apply into your practical working sphere. The Financial Markets and Technology course helped me achieve this. It is due to the enrichment in knowledge by embarking on this course that I could get a full time opportunity and work in one of the big-4 consulting firms in Singapore in Financial Advisory Domain. I would highly recommend the use of Epi-Trade® LIVE and to take up Financial Markets and Technology course if you want to have a long-term career in financial services domain.
