The Prop Academy · Ages 13–17

Trade with AI.
Think for yourself.

AI can help you sort information and explore ideas. To use it well, you need to understand the market, set the limits and check its answers. Those basics start here.

AI / SIMULATION

YOU ASK

“Help me review this simulated EUR/USD chart.”

  • 01 Identify the timeframe and current trend.
  • 02 Show evidence for and against the idea.
  • 03 Point out missing information and possible risks.
  • 04 Explain your reasoning; don’t place a trade.

You supply the rules. You judge the response.

Conceptual learning exercise. No AI trading feature or recommendation is shown.

The important shift

AI can help with the work. You stay responsible for the decision.

It can summarise a chart or challenge an idea. It can also misunderstand your question, use incomplete data or sound certain when it is wrong. Learn to ask for evidence, check it yourself and choose when to stop.

The foundations

Four skills behind a better question.

Each thing you learn gives you a clearer way to guide and question an AI tool.

01 / FOUNDATION

Understand the market

Learn what prices, orders and spreads mean before you ask an AI to read a chart.

QUESTION TO ASKWhich market and timeframe are we looking at?
02 / FOUNDATION

Define your risk

Know position size, stops and limits so you can say what must never happen.

QUESTION TO ASKWhat is the maximum simulated loss in this exercise?
03 / FOUNDATION

Read the context

Recognise trends, ranges and news so a single signal does not become your whole plan.

QUESTION TO ASKWhat would make this idea invalid?
04 / FOUNDATION

Review the process

Write down why you made a decision and what the outcome taught you.

QUESTION TO ASKCan you explain every step in the answer?

Before you trust an answer

Pause. Check. Learn.

Use AI as a study partner. A convincing answer is a starting point for investigation, not proof that a decision is safe.

  1. 01

    Ask what the answer is based on.

    Look for the chart, timeframe, assumptions and information it may be missing.

  2. 02

    Find a reason it might be wrong.

    Consider a different interpretation or a market condition the answer overlooked.

  3. 03

    Test it in simulation.

    Record the idea, the outcome and what you would change next time.

Your learning path

Start with skills you can explain.

The Academy teaches market basics and simulated practice. The AI example shows how those skills could help you evaluate a tool later.

01

Learn

Watch lessons on markets, risk and building a plan.

02

Practise

Use a simulated account to make and review decisions.

Describe your reasoning, limits and no-trade conditions.

YOUR PROCESS
04

Question AI

Ask for evidence and check the answer against what you know.

FUTURE SKILL

For parents and guardians

Curiosity with clear boundaries.

Students aged 13–17 can learn to question AI outputs while practising trading decisions in a simulated environment.

  • No real money is traded and no cash payouts are made.
  • AI tools may be wrong; the page does not offer automated trading.
  • Guardian consent is required. Any purchase must be made by a parent or guardian.

Common questions

AI, trading and the Academy.

If AI can analyse charts, why learn trading?

You still need to set the goal and limits, check its sources and spot mistakes. Understanding markets and risk makes those checks possible.

Do I need to learn to code?

No. Start by explaining your process in plain language: what information to use, when to pause and what to check. These are useful skills whether or not you ever write code.

Does The Prop Academy offer AI trading?

This page teaches a way to think about AI. The example is illustrative; it is not an AI trading feature or an instruction to connect a tool to an account.

Does the Academy trade with real money?

No. The Academy is for learners aged 13–17 and uses simulated trading challenges. There are no real trades or cash payouts. A parent or guardian must consent, and all purchases are made by a parent or guardian.

Your next step

Learn the basics. Then ask better questions.
