What is paper trading?

Paper trading means buying and selling real tickers with virtual money instead of real cash, so you learn the mechanics, order types, position sizing, and reading a chart, without any financial risk. On JagSim you practice on real-time prices for stocks and crypto, starting with a persistent $100,000 balance. It is a simulator, not a brokerage, and nothing here is real money or investment advice.

Is paper trading free on JagSim?

Yes. Core paper trading is free with no credit card. You can jump into the free demo at /try and place your first practice trade in seconds. A free account is optional, it just saves your permanent portfolio, trade history, and leaderboard rank so you can pick up where you left off.

Is it real money or a real broker?

No. JagSim is a simulator operated by JagInsights LLC, not a broker or exchange. You cannot deposit, withdraw, or lose real cash, and prices are real-time. Because you are practicing against how the market actually moved, the skills you build, timing entries, setting stops, sizing positions, carry over to real trading.

Does the portfolio reset?

No. Signed-in Paper Trading portfolios on JagSim are permanent, there are no seasons and no forced resets, so your virtual $100,000 account and its history stay with you. More detail on paper trading that doesn't reset.

How it works

Your signed-in paper desk is a persistent $100,000 account with real tickers, a full order ticket, and honest fills. It saves across every session, no seasons, no forced reset. More on paper trading that doesn't reset.
