Information
|
| "VTS² (Virtual Trading Simulation System)" is a proprietary product
developed in order to facilitate effective financial education. VTS² creates
an endogenous and “complete” virtual market with adjustable settings, making
it an ideal tool for educational purposes. The system was originally designed
for professional traders, but is now available with modifications catering
for usage by inexperienced investors as well as students. |

Concept
|
"VTS²” is a brainchild of our CEO, Yusuke Ito, who, as a former head of equity trading at a major investment bank, had been involved in training a large number of traders. New traders typically obtained trading skills “on the job”, by making lots of mistakes, often leading to hard-cash financial losses. VTS² was developed with the aim of minimizing this lengthy and costly process of “training up” a trading professional. Incorporating an effective simulation system with real-life features into the initial stages of the training process will likely reduce critical errors down the line. By adjusting the difficulty levels of the system features, VTS² can be easily modified to be an effective educational tool not only financial professionals, but also for individual investors and students at learning institutions.
