Understanding Simulated Trading
Simulated trading allows users to practice trading with virtual funds in a risk-free environment that replicates real market conditions. Users receive an initial virtual balance to trade freely without financial risk, and outcomes do not affect actual assets.
Benefits of Simulated Trading
- Risk-free learning: Master trading strategies without financial loss.
- Real-market conditions: Experience live price movements and order execution.
- Diverse trading options: Access spot, futures, options, and margin trading.
