Brokers
From practice to a real account.
The arena trains the eye with zero money. When you eventually want a real account, pick it deliberately: costs, demo access, and the market you actually learned to read. Links below are affiliate links — disclosed, never the reason a broker is listed.
Affiliate disclosure: some links on this page are affiliate links. If you open an account through one, TheAI101 may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Listing is not financial advice, not a recommendation of profitability, and never influences lesson content. Only deposit money you can afford to lose.
RH
Robinhood
Best for: a first US brokerage account
Stocks · Options · Crypto (US)
Commission-free
Fractional shares
Beginner-friendly app
The simplest on-ramp for US stocks and ETFs: no commissions, fractional shares, and an app that stays out of the way. Options approval is separate — do the risk unit before touching it.

WB
Webull
Best for: chart-first traders
Stocks · Options · Futures
Advanced charting
Paper trading
Extended hours
The chart-heavy platform: built-in paper trading makes it a natural next step after the Live Practice arena, and the tooling rewards everything this site taught you about reading structure.

PO
Pocket Option
Best for: practicing binary math (demo first)
Binary · Forex · CFDs
Free demo
High risk
The binary/forex platform most short-term traders start on, with a free demo that matches what the math lessons teach. Binary options are fixed-odds bets: know your breakeven before any real deposit.
Offshore-regulated. High risk — most retail accounts lose money. Do the math first:

How to choose: start with the market you practiced — stocks point to Robinhood or Webull, binaries mean demoing on Pocket Option until the breakeven math is automatic. Prefer a demo or paper account while your win rate is still unproven. Judge a broker on costs and execution, never on bonuses.
Educational only. TheAI101 never handles deposits, never places orders, and earns nothing from your trading volume. Affiliate relationships do not change lesson content or the arena's honest scoring.
