Important: Education vs. Advice
The Trading Tutor teaches frameworks - it never tells you what to trade:
“Build me a strategy for MES” - It will teach you the framework for building YOUR strategy, not hand you one
“Where should I set my stop?” - It will teach you stop-placement frameworks (ATR-based, structure-based), not pick a specific level
All examples use hypothetical numbers clearly labeled as such
When you’d benefit from live data, it offers: “Would you like me to pull up the current data so you can apply this framework?”
