Training Update, 11-12 October 2012 - Melbourne

Thu 9 Aug 2012

d-cyphaTrade runs specialist workshops on the Australian Electricity Futures & Options Market.

Learn the basics on Day 1 with an introductory course, aimed at recently entered participants to the Australian electricity industry and those that are new to financial markets. There is no assumed knowledge and generally suited for any role in the market from traders, risk managers, treasurers, regulators and other industry observers.

You'll learn how daily margining by a central counterparty clearer reduces credit default risk in hedge contracts and understand the new Initial Margins for electricity through worked examples. The workshop incorporates examples to illustrate how futures and options are used to hedge against the impact of the Carbon Price and other factors that affect electricity forward prices.

The advanced Options Trading Workshop will be covered on Day 2. The workshop overviews the fundamental volatility drivers in the National Electricity pool and futures markets, relevant to options pricing and risk management (the option greeks). The workshop will demonstrate hedging techniques using options to minimise hedge cash flow volatility for generators, retailers and industrial energy consumers and utility companies.
