Stage 3: Applied practice

Every course in the path includes structured practice — paper trading, exercises and reviewed journals — so concepts are applied before they are relied on. The current status of AlphaSync, the Academy’s simulated practice environment, is shown below.
AlphaSyncStatus: Coming SoonAlphaSync is a simulated practice environment for education. Simulated and paper-trading environments do not reproduce all the characteristics of live markets, such as execution, liquidity, costs and emotional pressure. Simulated results do not represent actual trading and do not predict future results. Screens show illustrative data.
