What happened — and what it teaches
In the summer of 2020, the Portuguese stock market faced a pivotal test. The PSI 20 index, which had been recovering from pandemic-driven losses, began showing cracks as global uncertainty mounted. This replay spans 98 daily bars from June 16 to October 29, placing you inside a sustained correction that would challenge both your analysis and composure. Eleven decision points await, four of them critical junctures where a single choice could mean the difference between limiting losses or compounding them.
The index fell 12.8% over the period, sliding from 4432.27 to 3863.2. Drawdowns stretched to 15.0%, and the largest single-day move reached 2.5%—a reminder that even measured corrections contain sharp intraday swings. There were no dramatic crashes, just the grinding erosion of a market finding its footing after an unprecedented shock. Navigating this required reading subtle shifts in momentum, not just reacting to headline numbers.
This replay sharpens three essential skills. Process-wise, you learn to distinguish between a temporary pullback and the early stages of a structural downturn. Risk-wise, the 15.0% drawdown ceiling forces honest conversations about position sizing and stop-loss discipline. Psychologically, watching losses accumulate while maintaining analytical clarity tests the emotional foundations every trader must build. The goal is not to predict the bottom, but to emerge from the replay with a repeatable framework for navigating uncertainty.
