Practice Drills: Building a Commodity Cycle Tracking Sheet
A hands-on drill course for investors and finance professionals who want macro context they can actually check. You will build a commodity cycle tracking sheet in Google Sheets from scratch: pulling free public data for crude oil, gold, copper, and steel, converting it to rupees, measuring trend and range position, adding inventory, futures curve, and demand signals, and combining them into a phase scorecard that says recovery, expansion, slowdown, or contraction. Then you test the scorecard against the 2020 to 2022 cycle, map each phase to Indian sectors and listed companies, and run a complete monthly update. Educational content only, not investment advice.
