How to Use the War Room
Welcome to the Institutional Trading War Room. Your goal is to manage a $500M portfolio by reacting to live market events and executing profitable strategies.
Bloomberg Terminal Emulation
This is your primary interface. Use it to get information on stocks, news, and your portfolio. Try these commands:
-
MSFT US <GO> - Get a quote and recent news for Microsoft.
-
TSLA US <GO> - Get a quote and recent news for Tesla.
-
POS <GO> - View your current open positions.
-
HELP <GO> - See a list of available commands.
P&L Dashboard
Track your portfolio's performance in real-time. Your goal is to maximize your Realized P&L.
Order Entry
Execute trades using various order types. Be mindful of the "Slippage Predictor" for large VWAP orders. After submitting an order, you will see an execution confirmation in the terminal.
Hedge Fund Tools
Use the Pair Trading panel to find correlated assets for hedging. Use the Short Locate panel to check if a stock is available to short; "hard-to-borrow" stocks will incur high fees.
