UNO or the course instructor are not your financial advisors. Do not take anything discussed and taught in this course as a recommendation to buy or sell.

Trading can generate addiction, take the course at your own risk.

Trades that are placed by students during the course are meant to be executed with paper not real money. UNO and the instructor strongly recommend waiting to go live until you see consistent results and not before the end of the course. Regardless, never trade with money you cannot afford to lose.
