      Abstract

      Computerisation is about to overtake markets that traditionally depended on physical presence to bring buyers and sellers together in one place. Providing appropriate interfaces for trading environments is a challenging task. In the context of financial trading, the behaviour of different trading parties (investors, brokers and dealers), trading signals, economic and financial indicators, and trading systems, constitutes a complex environment which is difficult to capture in a mathematical model, a computer simulation, or a textual description. This paper discusses the prospects for developing new environments for Virtual Trading that combine VR modelling with a new approach to computer-based modelling that has been developed at the University of Warwick [1].
