Power Trading Analysis?

Any tips on how to learn power flow modeling, economic dispatch modeling, and energy economics? Other than that, where is the best place to learn about transmission studies, LMP (congestion) forecasts, and Optimum Power Flow (OPF)?

I also want to learn how could I help power traders developing strategies for FTR/CRR/TCR/TCC instruments? How can I research the power market on a daily basis to find opportunities for traders trading these instruments?

I have already been through PJM's courses (at least some of them) and ERCOT nodal 101, so anything other than those (unless you can specify which courses/presentations exactly). Preferably, I am looking for materials that would help me apply and test my skills, and not just have a general understanding.
