Hi Product Hunt, Felix here, publisher of Stock Education.
We built PaperTrade after watching the same story repeat: beginners either stay too scared to start investing, or they jump in with real money and pay for their education in losses.
PaperTrade is a free stock market simulator. You get a virtual portfolio, trade at real market prices, and learn the mechanics of investing without risking a cent. No brokerage account, no credit card.
The early numbers tell the story better than we could. Our first 52 practice investors have put US$30.7M of virtual money to work, and portfolios sitting below their starting balance are down a combined US$1.22M. That's $1.2M of real lessons that cost nothing. Meanwhile our best portfolio is up 15.6%, so it cuts both ways.
It sits inside our free education platform, so when a trade goes wrong you can go straight to the lesson, glossary term, or cheat sheet that explains why. We don't sell stock tips and we don't give financial advice. We teach the skills and let you practise them safely.
I'd love your feedback, especially: what would make you trust a simulator enough to recommend it to a complete beginner? I'll be here all day answering questions.
