Free trading simulator • No deposit • Real market data

See how a trade works — before real money is involved

Watch how trades behave in real market conditions — without risking capital.

Step 1 of 2 Demo → Live

The demo environment is provided by eToro, a multi-asset trading platform used by over 40 million users globally.

Use the demo for one thing: execution clarity

Most people don’t struggle with ideas — they struggle with what happens after they click Buy or Sell.
Use the demo to see spreads, volatility, and timing in real market conditions — before real money is involved.

  • See how price moves in real time
  • Understand execution (spread + timing)
  • Decide if you’re ready to go live

Whether you’re brand new or coming from a Stock Decoder / Market Radar idea, the demo account lets you observe how a trade behaves with live pricing — without committing capital.

You can switch between Virtual and Real inside the same account.

Built for observation — not performance claims

What separates this simulator from most demos

Execution-first
Observe spreads, order execution, and timing — not simulated performance outcomes.
Live market behavior
Pricing and volatility behave like real markets, so demo and live feel consistent.
Same platform, desktop & mobile
The demo uses the same interface on desktop and mobile as the live account.

Step 2 of 2 — Go live when you’re ready

The demo is a checkpoint — not the finish line.
When you feel comfortable with the flow, you can switch to Real and place a small first trade using the same steps you just tested.

  • Start small (you can always size up later)
  • Use the same ticker you tested in demo
  • Place one simple order and observe the fill
Virtual first. Live when ready.
No deposit required to start in demo.
