Make me a market.
Then do it again.
It's the game trading firms play in interviews. You quote a price, someone who knows the answer trades against you, and you have to work out what they know before it costs you. Two-Way gives you the reps.
An interviewer who knows the answer, and wants your money.
They have a number close to the truth and trade against you to make a profit. Every trade is a clue. Follow the flow and you'll find the answer. Ignore it and you'll pay for it.
- Too wide and they won't play. Close, and they make you tighten until you've committed.
- Halfway through there's a clue, and on Hard the contract can change under you.
- A coach tells you what to do next, and a proper debrief tells you what to fix.
A trading floor for your society, set up in one click.
Pick easy, medium, hard or a mix, and the questions and answers are ready, so the host can play too. Everyone gets the order book, the chart and their own position. Nobody can see who's trading with who.
- Up to ten players by default, or more for a big night.
- Announcements mid-round move the price, and the quickest to react wins.
- Put the big screen on a projector and the room watches the market move.
Simple to learn. Hard to get good at.
Something with a number for an answer, like how many points there are on a Go board.
Quote a bid and an ask. Tight enough to be useful, honest about what you don't know.
If they keep buying your offer, the answer's higher. Move before it costs you.
The answer's revealed, your position settles at it, and the debrief shows what to fix.
The things interviewers are actually watching.
Breaking a question down so your opening market isn't a wild guess.
Turning "they keep buying" into "move up", and knowing how far.
Skewing your price so you don't end up max long on the wrong answer.
Position, cash and PnL at any answer, in your head, under pressure.
Tight when you know, wider when you don't, never so wide it's useless.
Re-pricing in seconds when a clue lands or the contract changes.
