Experienced short-term traders who use the Socrates Platform for research could have seen the market patterns and trends leading into this event, and how it developed into an ideal trading opportunity.  The Socrates Platform team has published a [new case study](https://www.socratesplatform.com/using-socrates-to-research-british-pound-futures-case-study) highlighting how the [Timing Arrays](https://www.socratesplatform.com/proprietary-models/timing-arrays) could have been used to identified possible turning points for a trade, while the [Reversal System](https://www.socratesplatform.com/proprietary-models/reversal-system) helped reveal a relatively high price resistance with little support below — setting up the potential for a downward move. The Socrates Platform is designed for a broad audience with varying levels of knowledge and expertise. For most users, Socrates is a tool to help research global market activity and long-term investment opportunities. But for advanced users experienced in active trading, Socrates can also be used to help identify short-term opportunities. Keep in mind that short-term trading can accelerate or amplify the risk (and magnitude) of financial loss. It is not recommended for inexperienced or novice users, or for passive investors.
