Energy trading is fast, complex, and highly data-driven. Traders and analysts must continuously monitor prices, volumes, margins, targets, and risks to stay competitive. However, when KPIs are scattered across multiple sheets or systems, performance tracking becomes slow, inconsistent, and unreliable. As a result, decisions are delayed and risk exposure increases.Energy Trading KPI Dashboard in Google Sheets
