Every lesson includes a Simple View, an Evidence View and a Replay Lab. The two images preserve the same underlying event. Selected examples teach definitions; they do not establish a win rate or predict future prices. Each visual example has its own page, with a link to the broader trading lesson for definitions and measured research.
