The pullback comes, but where do you get in? The OTE gives a precise zone, and this game teaches you to place it. Three real Nasdaq or gold charts, a leg drawn on each. Tap the pullback zone between 62 and 79%.
How to play
Pick a level, then find the OTE zone on three charts in a row. Tap the right candle and the answer appears on the chart; tap the wrong one and the game shows you what is off, candle by candle. After each chart, the answer lists every solution with its time and price.
Easy: unlimited mistakes. Medium: three mistakes. Hard: just one. You can stretch the candles by dragging the price or time scale, as on TradingView.
The rule that keeps score
The leg is drawn for you: from a clear low (or a clear high) to the chart’s last extreme, at least 8 average candles tall, and not exceeded since. Its start is 100%, its end 0%.
The OTE is the band between 62% and 79% of the pullback, measured from the end of the leg. Tapping any price in that band, to the right of the leg, is right. On a mistake, the game gives the percentage tapped.

Why train this way
Knowing the definition is good. Spotting it in a blink on a moving chart is something else, and that is exactly what this game trains: lots of charts, the answer straight away, the explanation when you get it wrong. Your eye learns fast, with nothing to learn by heart. It is a reading exercise on past data, not a trading signal.
