Event Replay
What happened — and what it teaches
In the spring of 2015, the FTSE 100 Index hovered near historic highs, riding a wave of global optimism. Yet beneath the surface, interconnected financial markets were becoming increasingly vulnerable. The period from April 17 to November 9, 2015 would expose how a crisis originating in Chinese equities could cascade across borders, testing the resilience of even the most established European indices. This replay places traders and investors in the shoes of those who faced the unfolding uncertainty without the benefit of hindsight.
The index descended from 6994.6 to 6295.2, a decline of 10.0% across 144 daily bars. The journey proved far more volatile than the final number suggests, with a maximum drawdown of 17.0% testing portfolio values and nerves alike. The largest single-bar move of 4.7% served as stark reminder that markets can move with violent conviction during periods of stress. Navigating this environment required participants to confront 25 decision points, nine of which proved critical to outcome.
This scenario strips away the comfort of knowing what came next, forcing genuine engagement with incomplete information. Participants experience firsthand how drawdown erodes confidence and how volatility clouds judgment. The replay cultivates disciplined process over prediction, emphasizing position sizing, risk management, and emotional regulation. For those training to make better decisions under pressure, the 2015 FTSE collapse offers a compelling classroom.
