What Is Paper Trading or Simulated Trading?
Lots of new traders join the markets every \day. But the sad truth is that most of those lose all their money before they’ve properly learned how to trade.
What differentiates the successful traders from those that fail before they’ve even started?
We believe: a proper trading education.
A so-called “paper trading” account allows you to trade the market without risking real money in real time with the similar condition of a real account. Your order inside your day trading simulator will be executed and you will incur a win or loss depending on how your trade goes – but all of that is a simulated procedure. So you will essentially have the real trading experience – thinking about your risk, determining the best entry point, punching your hotkeys – but without the risk of losing money. This way, you can practice trading until you’re comfortable and profitable (many of our students trade the simulator for 3 months) – and go live once you’re in a position to protect your precious capital or, ideally, multiply it. As such, one day of trading in a simulator can be worth weeks of looking at static charts or reading books about trading.
We at Bear Bull Traders recommend a day trading simulator that exactly mirrors the day trading platform that you’ll later use as a live trader. The platform is provided by DAS TRADER, one of the few Nasdaq Platinum Certified Order Entry Platforms.
With the DAS day trading simulator, the only difference is that DAS will be linked to a paper trading account instead of your real account at your brokerage. This way, switching from practicing to trading with real money is as easy as pushing a button and changing your account inside DAS trader.
