Trading Simulation at HKU!
Ever wondered what it takes to trade a real market?
Join IMC for a live Trading Simulation and experience first-hand how our traders operate. Using Python, you'll build and deploy your own trading bot, translate your logic into real-time trades, and test your strategy against competing teams — and against ours. It is the closest experience to how IMC'ers think, react and make decisions in fast-moving markets.
WHAT TO EXPECT
- Build and deploy your own Python trading bot
- Turn logic into real-time trades
- Compete against other teams (and our bots)
- Apply research-driven thinking in a fast-paced session
- Bring your laptop and a problem-solving mindset
Throughout the session there will be food and refreshments, the opportunity to network with IMC'ers, and prizes for our top performers.
