Five simple modules that take you from "what is a share?" to understanding charts, risk and how to practise safely.
The whole idea in 60 seconds
Trading means buying something and later selling it, hoping the price has changed in your favour. Here is the simple version.
1. Prices move
Prices go up and down because of supply and demand: how many people want to buy versus sell.
2. You pick a direction
If you think the price will rise, you "buy". Some products also let you "sell" if you think it will fall.
3. You manage the risk
Tools like a stop loss limit how much you could lose if you're wrong, and you will be wrong sometimes.
4. Profit or loss
The difference between your buy and sell price is your profit or loss, minus costs. Losses are always possible.
Practise with pretend money. Learn from real mistakes, safely.
Read simulated charts, make hypothetical buy or sell decisions, set stop losses and work out position sizes, then see what would have happened. Keep notes in your practice journal.

Never connected to a broker. No real money. No real trades, ever.
Open the Practice AcademyNot silly at all, it's one of the most-asked questions! A pip is a tiny unit used to measure price moves in currencies. If GBP/USD goes from 1.2500 to 1.2501, it has moved 1 pip.
Think of it like the pennies of the currency world. Want a quick practice question on it?
Remember: trading involves risk and profits are never guaranteed.
