What happened — and what it teaches
In the autumn of 2021, the CSI 300 entered a prolonged descent that would test the resolve of any market participant. This replay spans 126 daily bars from late October 2021 through late April 2022, placing you inside a correction that reshaped Chinese equity sentiment for the decade ahead. Eleven decision points punctuate the slide, four of them critical junctures where positioning choices carried outsized consequences.
The index closed the period at 4.01, down 20.4% from its 5.04 starting level. The max drawdown reached 26.7%, with the largest single session moving 5.0% against positions. These are not abstract statistics but lived experience: each bar represents a day where portfolios eroded, stop-losses triggered, and conviction was questioned. The drawdown alone exceeds typical recessionary thresholds, making this a stress-test of risk management under duress.
For decision training, this scenario exposes three vulnerabilities. First, process discipline erodes when losses compound; pre-defined rules must survive emotional pressure. Second, risk calibration matters: a 26.7% drawdown demands position sizing that preserves optionality rather than doubling down on falling prices. Third, psychology surfaces as the decisive variable—confirmation bias whispers to hold, while fear pushes others to exit at the worst moment. This replay does not promise profits but offers the closest thing: a safe environment to build habits that survive actual volatility.
