Reading the chart at a glance

Lesson 2 of 7 in First Contact. Rookie grade, 40 XP. Free to read, mission runs live in the terminal.

» Green means up, red means down. That's the first thing your eyes learn.

» Time runs left to right — older on the left, now on the right.

» Price runs up and down — higher on the chart = more expensive.

» Open TSLA and just stare at it for a sec. Up/down, left/right. You already know how to read it.

Watching a concept is not the same as running it, so every Academy lesson ships with a live mission inside the Tapeboard terminal. This one runs on the live chart (/chart/TSLA). Reading is free; running missions takes a free account.
