Navigating the Noise: Outsmarting Volatility Across Global Energy Markets

In the current commodity landscape, “unprecedented” has become the norm. With ongoing major geopolitical events, rapid integration of renewables, and unpredictable weather, volatility is ever-present, meaning it’s vital to stay ahead of the curve. 

Success is no longer passively watching charts, but instead, requires market participants to automate their analysis and take control of their data. If your trading tools are slow, you’re losing ground to the competition every single day.

Tradesignal is the analytical platform which delivers clarity from this market chaos. It can keep traders and analysts one step ahead of the competition. In order to trade successfully, it’s vital that you can:

• Outsmart market speed
• Build strategies unique to your team
• Validate your concepts before putting money on the line

Get the full picture

In these ever-changing markets, missing one piece of information can be costly. Tradesignal provides multiple different ways to look at your data, from conventional Candlestick and Line charts, to more unique visualisations such as Point & Figure and Renko, to ensure you spot every subtle shift.

That said, the real advantage is turning all that data into something meaningful.

• The system finds the signals for you. Tradesignal automatically flags over 80 critical chart patterns the moment they appear, saving you hours of manually searching patterns. You get a verified, high-confidence trading signal instantly, giving you the speed required to beat everyone else to the trade.
• Know when the market changes. For markets which follow recurring cycles, such as energy, Tradesignal’s Seasonal Chart tool is invaluable. Producing a clear historical reference, this can help to reduce risk and smartly position your money before the usual seasonal moves happen.
• Easy global comparisons are a must. Trading on Tradesignal isn’t confined to one country or currency. Thanks to our built-in unit and currency conversion, comparing contracts from different countries is no longer an issue. It’s possible to easily and accurately analyse complex, high-value spreads, such as comparing European natural gas and global LNG in $/MMBtu. Support for FX forward rates provides even greater accuracy when comparing contracts down the curve.

Stay ahead of the competition

If you use the same indicators as everyone else, you’ll get the same results. Helping to deliver a quick competitive edge that is unique and protected, Tradesignal offers two essential paths to create your own unique trading strategy.

• Equilla: your strategy builder. Trayport’s special language for writing trading rules. This can quickly turn a trading concept into tested code, getting your strategies to market faster. Your team’s ideas are protected and remain unique to your organisation.
• Easy Python integration. It is simple to plug a Python-based model directly into the Tradesignal environment. Once connected, Tradesignal can use that Python code to run tests, monitor the market, and trigger alerts.

Prove it works

An idea that hasn’t been tested is nothing more than a gamble. Before you take any risks, you need a strong indication that your rules will make money in the live market. Tradesignal’s powerful backtesting and optimisation tools allow for testing against years of historical data, and is summarised in a detailed Performance Report. 

This report acts as your compliance foundation and your strategy’s report card. It gives you a clear breakdown of expected returns and, importantly, quantifies the strategy’s risk based upon historical behaviour.

Ultimately, Tradesignal replaces guesswork with greater certainty, making it easier to trade with more confidence in a volatile market.
