A normal day in the life of a GEN-I trading analyst
At the start of the day, the analysts look at the news and the global trends that could affect the market. This includes weather forecasts, news of changes on energy markets and an analysis of current energy prices. They then embark on more in-depth research, searching for new trading options and forecasting the price of a specific energy product based on basic and technical factors.
They prepare daily analyses, reports and price forecasts that will be key to the trading strategy. They also work with other analysts and traders, which enables ideas to be exchanged and strategies to be tweaked in response to any new circumstances that arise. This is often a fast-moving, dynamic task that requires precision and the ability to analyse a large amount of data in real time.
Working with other teams
Working with other departments, and particularly with traders, gives GEN-I’s trading analysts a particular advantage. Analysts do not work in isolation but are situated directly on the trading floor. This enables them to receive precise and immediate feedback from traders, who are using the analyses to make decisions. This precise alignment with the traders’ work ensures that the analyses are always practical and targeted at the real needs of the market. This helps the analyst work out very quickly what works and what doesn’t, and how they can improve their methods. Cooperation is vitally important, as analysts exchange knowledge, check their results and are constantly learning. Together with other teams, they review the results carefully, discuss new approaches and test new strategies, which leads to swifter, better and more accurate forecasts.

The company provides analysts with access to cutting-edge tools, the latest external analytical resources and a huge database for creating valuable forecasts. These tools and data provide every analyst with everything they need to produce a thorough analysis of the market situation and identify future price shifts.
