Atlas is a trading simulator with two session stocks and a server-generated headline feed. Signal headlines schedule a delayed mid-shift on Gamma bots; noise headlines do not. Use the Atlas UI to start/stop the feed and trade on the ladders, or drive the same session from a client — see Atlas API.

​
Objective

When a headline relates to one of the stocks, decide if the news is bullish or bearish and buy or sell before the market reacts. Build a profitable position across the session. Skills targeted: speed, interpreting headlines, managing live portfolios. Open Atlas from the Simulator hub (or go to /atlas).

​
Feed (UI)

  1. Open Atlas and click Start Feed.
  2. The server emits headlines on the configured interval.
  3. Signal items name one of the two session companies; the wording is bullish or bearish, and the server schedules a market reaction after a delay in the session band.
  4. Noise items are unrelated text with no market reaction.
Session company names and feed settings are shown in the UI and also pushed over WebSocket as atlasFeedState. Over the API, each headline is only { id, text, timestamp } — match text against those company names to recover the subject (see Atlas API).

​
Settings

Frequency, reaction range (points), and reaction delay (seconds) are set under Atlas Settings or presets (Easy, Medium, Hard). The server stores those values for the session and applies them when generating reactions.

Scoring
