Description

## Overview
Discovery exercise to understand the Trader user personas within financial services that would be a user of FDC3.

Many thanks to @Lecss for the below contribution.

Below is a high level grouping which then allows for specific actions to be drilled down into.

### Detail
For trading there are generally 3 main stages ( not-exhaustive list but a good start) :
**1. Pre – Trade**
- Risk Assessment
- Analytics ( PnL, Flows, Vols etc)
- Client/Counterparty Lookup
- Charting / History Lookup
- News
- Liquidity Checks
- Flows Monitoring
- PNL analysis

**2. Trade Execution**
- Electronic comms
- Chat interaction
- Phone interaction
- Trade automation
- Trade Confirmation / Notifications

**3. Post trade**
- Position / Risk management
- Hedge
- Compliance
- Historical Analysis
- Status monitoring
- Rolls
- Settlement
- Reconciliation
- Reporting

For each stage, traders generally need to interact with and exchange data between multiple apps / systems for every sub point above.

### Additional Context:
Contributions are welcomed to this issue.

**Add further workflows that are related to the trader persona for any use-cases you are trying to build on FDC3.**
