Stocks, sizes and commissions

Stocks trade the regular session, 9:30 to 16:00 New York time, Monday to Friday. Practice the open, the New York morning, the afternoon or a window you set.

Commissions are for a round turn, in and out, and you can change them in Settings.

How it works

  1. Pick a stock and a window. Apple, Tesla, Nvidia or SPY, and the part of the day you trade: the open, the morning, the afternoon or the whole session. The date can stay hidden.
  2. Trade in shares. Whole shares with a commission per share, market, limit and stop orders, a stop and target on every entry, sizing from your risk and leverage up to 4x on Pro and Elite.
  3. Review every trade. Each fill lands in the journal with entry, exit, size and P&L. Grade it, tag the setup and the mistake, and let Progress show your best hours and what to fix next.

Stock evaluation templates

Stock evaluations come in 25K, 50K and 100K sizes with a profit target, a static max loss, a daily pause and a rule to be flat a few minutes before the close. Edit any number before you start.

Questions

Is the stock simulator free?
Yes. The Free plan has no time limit and needs no card: 3 replay sessions a day, 1 evaluation account, the journal, the daily challenge and battles. Pro ($19 a month) removes the daily session limit.
Which stocks can I trade?
Apple (AAPL), Tesla (TSLA), Nvidia (NVDA) and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), in regular hours. The same account also has futures, forex and crypto.
Is this a paper trading account for investing?
No. It is built for day trading: you replay one session at a time and trade it from the open to the close. It doesn't track a long term portfolio.
Is there a pattern day trader rule?
No. There is no pattern day trader rule and no account minimum, because nothing is traded for real. Evaluation templates add their own rules instead, like a daily loss pause and being flat before the close.
Is it real stock data?
Not yet. Sessions run on generated data built from the statistics of the real market: its quiet and busy hours, opening bursts, gaps and fat tails. Charts that use it are tagged Generated, and real data is coming market by market as the licenses to show it are in place. Because the days are generated, nobody can look up how a session ends.
Can I backtest a stock strategy?
Yes. Write a strategy in the Pine Script style editor or start from one of over 100 built in indicators and strategies, then backtest it on past sessions with commission, slippage and a full report, including your odds of passing an evaluation.
