The tape moves on its own, bar by bar. You don't place orders — you hold a position while it moves.

Switch any time (buttons or ← ↓ → keys) — but every switch pays the $500 spread, and conviction pays: hold a read and your multiplier climbs to ×4 — on losses too. The tape speeds up, and it shakes out weak hands. Fall to $4,000: MARGIN CALL.
One more thing: this tape is secretly following a classic chart pattern. Read it before it reads you.
