Where a energy trader can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a energy trader already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Energy traders sell or buy shares of energy, sometimes from different sources. They analyse the energy market and investigate trends in prices to decide when to buy or sell shares and ensure the most profit. They make calculations, and write reports on energy trades procedures, and make predictions on the development of the market.
