Trading Floor

Trading Floor

Mandalay Markets — long-only futures and call/put options on NYSE equities, commodities, and crypto. Contracts come from a stored catalog (trading_catalog.json, 700+ listings) with filterable pages.

Game flow

Trading Floor → Filter asset / instrument → Buy contracts → Settle / expire → Wallet updated

Asset classes

Class	Examples
NYSE	Large-cap equities & index proxies
Commodities	Energy, metals, softs
Crypto	Major coins and pairs

Instruments

Instrument	Entry cost	Settlement
Future	Margin stub ≈ 10% of notional (min 25 chips)	PnL = (exit − entry) × multiplier × qty
Call	Premium = ask × multiplier × qty	Intrinsic = max(0, spot − strike)
Put	Premium = ask × multiplier × qty	Intrinsic = max(0, strike − spot)

Exit spot is the contract mark drifted by a small random move at settlement. No naked shorts.
