The Mind Room

Four games about the person in front of the screen. Each sets a well-known trap, lets you walk into it, and then says what happened.

On a keyboard: with the pointer over a machine, the left and right arrows move its slider and Enter presses its main button.

Spot the coin flips

Chance draws convincing trends.

Two charts. One is nothing but coin flips; the other has a real tilt built in. Which is the coin?

The Long Scroll

One of these is pure coin flips. The other was built with a small, steady tilt. Which is the coin?

0 right of 0

Both charts are generated. This is about how easily the eye finds a pattern in noise, not a claim about any real market.

The patience game

One trade. One button.

The only control is Close. Notice how soon your hand goes to it on a gain, and how long it stays away on a loss.

Lesson: trading psychology

Time left 30s

Open result 0.0 pips

One trade, thirty seconds, one button. Close whenever you like, or not at all.

A coin-flip walk from a new seed each time, with no spread. It is about the urge to act, not a way to practise trading.

The bias detector

Six questions, answered fast.

Each is a classic from the study of decisions. Your answers show which common leans you have today.

The mistake museum

Question 1 of 6

You are offered a choice. Which do you take?

Answer quickly, as you would in the moment. There are no right answers yet.

Six well-known questions from the study of decisions. A lean is a habit of mind that everyone has to some degree, not a fault; knowing it is there is the use of it.

The headline game

Up, down, or cannot say?

An invented headline, then both stories: how such news has sent a price up, and how it has sent it down.

Lesson: scheduled news

A headline, invented

“The jobs report beats the forecast”

The news is out. Which way does the price go?

“Cannot say” 0 of 0

Invented headlines and general explanations. Neither story is a prediction; each is a way such news has been read.

Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose.
