YOUR ACCOUNTS
Choose how you want to practice.
Move between Helix Practice and Alpaca’s test environment without confusing either one with real-money trading.
No bank account is connected. These controls only change your synchronized Helix simulation.
CASH LESSON
Cash changes your risk.
Holding more cash usually reduces short-term portfolio swings, but it can also reduce participation when markets rise. Use the simulator to compare both outcomes.
ALPACA PAPER TRADING
Connect your Alpaca paper account.
Authorize Helix through Alpaca OAuth. Orders remain simulated and use Alpaca paper buying power.
ALPACA CONNECT
