Flinders Business
Trading Room
If you want to understand global markets, there’s only so much
you can get from textbooks. You need to be out there, on the
trading floor, feeling the noise and excitement, making high-
stakes decisions in real time.
Welcome to the Business Trading Room. It’s a simulated financial
trading centre for students enrolled in Flinders Business degrees.
How does it work?
The Flinders Business Trading Room is a cutting-edge market
simulation program environment. Students can access time-series
data on security prices and exchange rates, execute trades in
real time and plug into financial modelling that mimics the global
derivatives market.
The Trading Room is powered by the same tech used by
institutional dealing rooms, fund managers and government
research departments. It even has mobile and algorithmic trading
capabilities. Think of it like Wall Street for beginners.
Who can use the Trading Room?
The Business Trading Room is built into the curriculum for
several Flinders Business degrees, including the Bachelor of
Finance, Bachelor of Finance and Business Economics, and
Bachelor of Business.
“I’ve found all my academics to be very
helpful throughout my study. Many of
them have a high degree of expertise and
experience, which provide very relevant
insight to the legal and business fields. Many
of my academics are still engaged in the
industry, from consultancy to still practising
as lawyers. All of my academics have been
very easy to communicate with and have
always been willing to help.”
