TERMINALADDICT
A retro futures trading game where your account balance is your health bar.
$10,000. 300 seconds. One very volatile market. And your broker, Preston Vale, on the phone for every single trade. Don't get margin called.
Trade. Preston's watching.
A 60-second taste of the real thing. Preston reacts to everything you do.
Meet Preston Vale.
Every account in Terminal Addict runs through one man. Preston Vale is your broker, your hype man, and your worst nightmare, and he's the voice on the other end of the line from the moment you open a new account.
He walks you onto the desk, stays on the phone for the entire session, and watches every single trade. Every dollar you make, he celebrates. Every dollar you lose, he takes personally. And if it all goes wrong, he's the one who makes the margin call.
He's the heart of the game, and he's fully voiced by its creator. Here's what sets him off:
- HEYPicks up the phone, or nudges you when you sit on your hands.
- WHOAHuge size, or a headline hitting the tape.
- LAUGHA big win, a win streak, the billion-dollar ending.
- GROANA big loss, or over-trading.
- YELLMargin call, liquidation, account nearly gone.
MARGIN
CALL
Drop below $1,000 and Preston calls. You will not enjoy it. Hit $0 and it's ACCOUNT LIQUIDATED. Screenshot it. Everyone does.
Three buttons. Infinite regret.
No finance degree required. If you can tell up from down, you can play. Getting good is another story.
BUY
Think the price is going up? Buy. You make money for every tick it climbs, and lose it for every tick it drops.
SELL
Think it's going down? Sell first, buy back later. Yes, you can profit from a crash. That's the fun part.
FLATTEN
Close everything and lock in the result. A trade only counts once you're flat. Your health bar takes it from there.
Built like a real desk. Plays like an arcade.
Every session gets a brand-new, completely random market. No two runs are the same, and no one can memorize the chart.
Real candlestick charts
5s, 15s, 30s and 1m candles, or switch to a clean line chart. Your open P&L lives right on the chart.
Drag-to-set stops & targets
Pull a stop loss or take profit straight off your entry line and watch the dollar amount update as you drag.
Fully rebindable hotkeys
Map buy, sell, flatten and a one-key position reverse to whatever your fingers want.
Size scales with you
Start with 10 contracts. Grow the account and you can trade bigger. Lose it and your max size shrinks with you.
The NX-100
A fictional index of 100 completely absurd companies. Open it from the desktop and read the listings at your own risk.
My Account
Your full trade history, patterns, stats and trading personality. The terminal knows exactly what kind of trader you are.
Lifetime achievements
Career-long achievements tied to your account, not just one lucky session.

80s lofi Wall Street soundtrack
High-life synth vibes and crunchy terminal SFX, each with its own toggle.
How wild do you want the tape?
Three market conditions. Same $10,000. Very different blood pressure (yours and Preston's).
NORMAL
The base market. Plenty of movement to learn the ropes without getting launched into orbit.
HIGH VOLATILITY DAY
A little extra juice in every candle. Bigger wins, faster losses, sweatier palms.
DEGEN DAY
Absurd volatility. The chart becomes a seismograph. For people who think stop losses are a suggestion.
From the copy machine to Preston's office.
Your Wall Street rank sits on the home screen for everyone to see. Earn it.
Intern
Fetches coffee. Buys the top.
Floor Trader
Knows what a stop loss is. Sometimes uses one.
Desk Head
Consistent. Dangerous. Wears suspenders.
Gecko
The top of the food chain.
Fame. Shame. Both ranked.
Weekly and all-time boards for the disciplined, the degenerates, and the spectacularly broke. Every score is verified.
