Depending whether you are learning new positions or recalling positions the chart will show you how many
positions you’ve already learned during your current positions (see left image above) or how many positions are
left for recall, how many you recalled correctly and how many you missed (see right image above).
Below the image follows a graphical indicator to provide you feedback about the last move you made. If it was
correct it will be green otherwise red and a text telling you that the move was wrong.
The “Move Ratio” / “Recall Ratio” bar indicates how you are doing during your current session. The more often
you play the correct candidate move the higher will be your percentage.
Please note that the move list window is only updated if you selected the complete line mode. Otherwise it will
be empty.
Sometimes you want to start a training session and the program tells you that there are no positions left for
training. This can happen if you trained already all positions and none is due for recall. Remember, the program
makes sure you don’t recall positions too early and thus save time. In this case select another opening or check
the Opening Training Scheduler to find out when are positions due for recall.
Please note that there might be positions for recall, but you have selected a mode for learning new positions and
thus no positions are left. In this case just choose a recall mode. Of course, the opposite can be the case too, if
you are using a recall mode, but no positions are scheduled, but there are new positions to learn. Then just
switch the training mode.

You have many options at your disposal to tweak the training to your likings:

The Start button let you start the training while you can stop the training anytime by clicking on the corresponding button. You always have to stop a training session before you can switch the module or exit the application.
The Mark Previous and Mark Current buttons let you mark positions as “Training”. Later you can easily
look-up positions which are marked as “Training”. You might want to mark a position for later investigation
during your training session. The Mark Previous comes handy if you want to mark the position which was
