Common questions

Do I need any finance background?

None. Unit 1 starts with what a market is and how an exchange works. If you can read and do basic algebra, you're ready. The later units get genuinely quantitative, but you build up to them.

Is it really free?

Yes. Creating an account, the full 200-lesson curriculum, the research tools, the strategy tester, the daily call, and competition entry are all free.

How long does a lesson take?

About 10 to 20 minutes. Each one is a short explanation, an example or activity, and a five-question quiz. Your progress saves as you go, so you can stop and pick up later.

Where does the market data come from?

Live quotes and fundamentals come from public market data providers, macro series come from the Federal Reserve's FRED database, and charts are powered by TradingView. It's for learning, not for live trading decisions.
