SELL to close the loop

Lesson 6 of 7 in First Contact. Rookie grade, 40 XP. Free to read, mission runs live in the terminal.

» A position isn't done until you close it. Buying is half a trade.

» Hit SELL to exit. The difference between your buy and sell is your P&L.

» Up = you made money. Down = tuition. Both are fine while it's fake.

» Buy then sell = your first complete round-trip. Welcome.

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 paper trading simulator (/simulator). Reading is free; running missions takes a free account.
