For clubs and teachers
Bring your club to Season 1: your own board, free.
Give your students a season to compete in together. Create a club, share one invite link, and let them tackle timed quant challenges under handles. Your club's board appears on the Seasons page.
- ✓ Math clubs
- ✓ Coding and CS clubs
- ✓ Investing clubs
- ✓ Economics and DECA/FBLA
- ✓ Competition teams
- ✓ AP Stats, Calc and CS classes
One link brings your club together

Once Season 1 is live, members can see their club's handle-only board on /seasons.
Want a plan for every meeting? It's included.
The optional six-week lab takes your club from market basics to a capstone, with a weekly plan and no finance background required.
Week 1
Markets and risk
Price a share, read a bid-ask spread, and measure why two stocks are safer than one.
Week 2
Options and payoffs
Sketch call and put payoffs and spot a mispriced option with put-call parity.
Week 3
Pricing
Implement Black-Scholes in Python until it matches the reference price.
Week 4
Risk sensitivities
Compute the Greeks and explain one to the group with a real-world analogy.
Week 5
Research discipline
Backtest a strategy and find where look-ahead or survivorship bias could fool you.
Week 6
Portfolio capstone
Submit and present a capstone: a question, code that answers it, and an honest result.
A ready plan for every meeting

This week's goal, discussion prompts and common sticking points, right on your class page.
Messages ready to send
A weekly note with the lessons, due date and link, plus a friendly nudge for anyone behind.
A scorecard, not a spreadsheet
Who started, who's active each week, who needs help and why, and every capstone. Export it anytime.
Why code, not a stock game
| Question | Stock games and finance-literacy courses | StrikeLab |
|---|---|---|
| What students do | Pick stocks in a simulator or read about finance | Write the models themselves: pricing, risk, backtests |
| What they finish with | A leaderboard rank or a quiz score | A capstone: a question, working code and an honest result |
| What the leader gets | A class list | A weekly plan, ready-to-send messages and a scorecard |
Use the lessons in a math or CS class
Assign one lesson or a full track. Students can read lessons without an account, and the coding exercises run in a browser.
AP Statistics connections
The options lessons use probability distributions and the normal CDF. CAPM and beta offer a concrete regression example: beta measures how returns move with a market benchmark.
AP Calculus connections
The option Greeks make derivatives tangible: Delta, Vega, Rho, and Theta track how price changes with an input; Gamma measures how Delta changes. Students can implement and graph them in Python.
These are curriculum connections, not an official AP endorsement. Browse the lessons.
What we collect, and what we don't
- Built for ages 13–18. No ads or data sales. Season boards show handles, never student names.
- Student work is private to the student and their leader unless the student shares it.
- Students can delete their account and everything in it at any time.
- If your school has its own student-data agreement or approval form, email it to us and we'll go through it with you. Read the privacy page.
Questions
Does the leader need finance or coding experience?
No. The lessons teach the material; the weekly plan tells you how to run the meeting, what to ask, and where students usually get stuck.
Can students use it outside the meeting?
Yes. Lessons are short, run on a laptop or Chromebook with a modern browser, and pick up where each student left off. Most of the work can happen in the meeting if you prefer.
What do I see as the leader?
Who has started, who's active each week, week-4 retention, who needs a nudge (and why), and each student's capstone, with a CSV export for your records.
Is anything public?
Season leaderboards show handles, not student names. Student work stays private to the student and their leader. A student can choose to share a capstone or record with a link and revoke it later.
Google Classroom or SSO?
Not yet. Students join with one invite link and a free account.
What does it cost?
Creating a club, joining Season 1, and using the six-week lab are free. Students never pay to participate. See the pricing page for other programs.
