Learning notes: Trading Mentor — Curated Knowledge
Ask the mentor about trading concepts. This chat uses a built-in answer library and local topic matching, with no AI API request. Answers can miss your question and are educational only. Practice what you learn on the free simulator with $100,000 virtual cash.

What the rule-based mentor does
This chat matches your question to a built-in library of educational answers about trading concepts, indicators and order types. It does not call a language model, read your journal or assess a proposed investment. Separate portfolio mentor tools can use the simulated figures shown on that page.
What it will not do
- It does not give buy or sell recommendations, price targets or personalised financial advice.
- It does not know your real financial circumstances and cannot assess suitability.
- Authored answers and topic matching can be wrong or miss the question. Check important claims against a primary source.
- It is not a substitute for a licensed professional in your own jurisdiction.
Getting useful answers
Ask about mechanics rather than what to buy. Try a supported topic such as risk/reward, diversification or dollar-cost averaging. Topic matching may return a general answer or miss your intent; it does not provide a personalised suitability assessment. Derivatives lessons are conceptual because this simulator does not trade options or futures contracts.
Good questions to ask it
- Explain what happens to a call option's value if the stock does not move for two weeks.
- What is the difference between a stop-loss order and a stop-limit order, and when does each fail?
- My practice win rate is 60% but I am down overall — what does that imply about my exits?
- Why do forex pairs move on interest-rate announcements?
- Walk me through how position size is calculated from account risk and stop distance.
How it works and what it costs
The mentor uses a built-in library of authored educational answers, topic matching and calculations. Chat does not call an AI provider or use AI credits. Its coverage is limited to the available topics; an unfamiliar question may receive a general explanation rather than a tailored answer.
Mentor topic matching happens in your browser and does not send the conversation to an AI provider. Advertising and analytics are separate services described in the privacy policy. Educational answers can still contain mistakes or omit context; check substantive claims against a primary source before relying on them.
A reminder about limits
No assistant, however fluent, can assess whether a trade suits your finances, and none of the answers here are regulated advice. Treat the mentor as a patient tutor for mechanics and vocabulary, and take anything that sounds like a recommendation as a sign the question needs rewording.
