Event Replay
What happened — and what it teaches
The scene opens in February 2011 with the FTSE 100 hovering near 6083, a moment when investors faced a menacing combination of slowing economic growth and surging energy costs threatening to ignite persistent inflation. Central banks stood at a crossroads between supporting fragile recoveries and tightening to contain price pressures, while corporate margins faced relentless squeeze from rising input costs. This was the crucible in which the decade would test its first major market stress.
Between 2011-02-18 and 2011-09-23, the index crumbled to 5066.8, delivering a -16.7% loss over 150 trading days. The journey was marked by a maximum drawdown of 17.7% and a largest single-bar move of 4.7%, moments when panic and capitulation dominated sentiment. Every rally became a trap, every dip a test of conviction, as the market grappled with whether growth or inflation would win the narrative.
This replay offers 26 decision points, 9 of them critical junctures, to train your process under pressure. You will confront the psychological temptation to hold losing positions too long, the challenge of sizing risk when volatility spikes, and the discipline required to act decisively when macro signals shift. The goal is not prediction but preparation: building the habits that keep you rational when markets are not.
