What happened — and what it teaches
In early 2020, the coking coal market entered one of its most turbulent periods as a global pandemic reshaped commodity demand across industries. The scenario spans 2020-02 to 2020-05, a 64-daily-bar window when supply chains froze and manufacturing output contracted sharply. Participants face the challenge of navigating this shock without knowing the outcome in advance, with 11 decision points inserted to force real choices under mounting uncertainty.
The numbers tell the story of a sustained collapse. The contract fell from 1230.5 to 1080.5, a decline of -12.2% over the data span. What makes this replay particularly demanding is the 19.7% max drawdown that tested anyone holding positions through the trough, combined with a largest single-bar move of 10.1% that could trigger forced exits or panic decisions. These statistics capture not just the magnitude but the jagged rhythm of the selloff.
This replay trains the mental habits that separate disciplined traders from reactive ones. The 19.7% drawdown rewards position-sizing discipline and the willingness to reduce exposure when the thesis deteriorates. The 10.1% single-bar spike punishes overconfidence and demands emotional compartmentalization. With 11 decision points and 4 marked critical, the scenario repeatedly asks: Will you follow your process or let fear override it? History does not repeat, but the psychological patterns it exposes remain evergreen.
