Zero's Edge | Free Futures Trader Training
Zero's Edge Launch Reps

Trading simulators let you practice trading. Reps trains the trader.

Reps of Risk is a free futures education and training platform. Learn the mechanics you will encounter in live trading, then practice the decisions behind a trade without risking real capital. Reps trains process, not one universally correct strategy.
Learn Live-market mechanics and futures foundations
Train Planning, risk acceptance, execution, and patience
Review Performance analytics and Guided Risk sessions
Start with tooltips and lessons, trade normally in SIM, or turn on Guided Risk to pause before a trade, define the plan, accept the planned loss, commit it, and compare the plan with what you actually did. Reps is free to use.
Optional Process Check
The 7 Challenge Trading Habits Self-Assessment
Platform knowledge is only one part of trading. This optional journal-based assessment connects directly to the decisions Reps is built to train: pausing before action, planning risk, accepting the planned loss, following the plan, passing on weak trades, and reviewing process instead of only P&L.
What You’ll Learn
Plan before action. Accept risk. Review the decision.

Seven Reps-linked challenges help you observe how you make and follow trading decisions. It is not a test of readiness, a personality score, or a prediction of profitability.

Optional process reflection you can carry directly into Guided Risk and normal SIM practice.
Reps of Risk
Learn how live futures trading works, then train the decisions that happen around the order. Reps combines a moving simulated market with lessons, tooltips, Guided Risk, structured Training, Evaluation-Style practice, performance analytics, and saved review sessions.
Built To Train The Decision
Learn the mechanics, then practice the process you planned.
Reps teaches futures contracts, order types, bid/ask execution, liquidity, slippage, brackets, chart tools, indicators, order history, margin, and trading costs as concepts for live trading. Then it gives you a place to practice your own setup and execution process without risking real capital.
Observe, Plan, Execute, Review
A rep is the decision, not just the trade. A correct pass still counts.

Use normal SIM for open practice, structured Training or Evaluation-Style sessions when you want rules around the account, and Guided Risk when you want to pause before entry, commit a plan, resume the market, and compare that plan with the execution afterward.

A profitable trade is not automatically a good trade. A losing trade is not automatically a bad trade.
Learn Live Mechanics
  • Contracts, ticks, points, bid, ask, spread, and liquidity
  • Market, Limit, Stop, and Stop-Limit orders
  • Long, Short, Flat, brackets, position state, margin, and costs
  • Chart, indicator, fill, slippage, and order-audit concepts
Train The Trader
  • Wait until you actually see your setup
  • Define entry, stop, target, Qty, and planned loss before entry
  • Commit the decision instead of rewriting it candle by candle
  • Count a correct no-trade decision as a rep
Review The Process
  • Track normal SIM performance by calendar day
  • Compare Guided Risk plans with actual execution
  • Save, favorite, download, import, and review Guided sessions
  • Add a trader note and study what changed, not just the P&L
Learn it. Plan it. Execute it. Review it.
Reps does not grade your strategy or promise trading results. It gives you tools to understand live-market mechanics and repeatedly practice the process you chose before real money is involved.
Stage 01
Learn the mechanics you will encounter in live futures trading.

Start with structured lessons and in-context tooltips. Learn contracts, tick values, order types, bid/ask execution, liquidity, slippage, brackets, margin, costs, position state, chart tools, and order history before those mechanics have real financial consequences.

Understand the contract and its dollar movement
Know what each order type actually does
Understand fills, position state, and risk controls
Know how to audit an order after it happens
Stage 02
Practice making the decision you planned.

Trade freely in normal SIM, start a structured Training session, or use Evaluation-Style rules when you want to practice account constraints. You do not need to make anything happen. If your setup is not there, staying flat can be the correct rep.

Practice entries, exits, stops, targets, and position size
Define risk before the order
Practice staying flat when the trade is not ready
Treat SIM P&L as feedback, not proof of an edge
Stage 03
Turn a trade idea into a committed plan with Guided Risk.

When you see a trade, Guided Risk pauses the market so you can state what you are seeing, choose Long or Short, define Entry, Stop, Target, Qty, see the planned risk and reward, and accept the planned loss before the market resumes. Reps then watches whether the committed plan changes.

Plan before the order instead of after the fill
Accept the planned loss before committing
See when entry, stop, or target changes from the plan
Use the comparison objectively, not as a strategy grade
Stage 04
Review the process separately from the outcome.

Normal SIM Performance tracks Current Balance, Days Tracked, Total P&L, Profitable Days, Best Day, Average Day, Avg Trades / Day, and Total Trades. Deliberately saved Guided Risk sessions go deeper with full-session review, plan-vs-execution context, favorites, portable .repsguided files, and optional trader notes.

A profitable trade is not automatically a good trade
A losing trade is not automatically a bad trade
Review whether you made the decision you planned
Save the Guided sessions that are worth studying again
