Lost in Complex Platforms & Basic Simulators?There’s a Better Way

Are you overwhelmed by other trading simulations that are designed for seasoned traders?

They’re filled with investing jargon you don’t understand, and overly complicated charts that lack any step-by-step instructions for how to get started.

Traditional brokerage platforms are intimidating as well.
You don’t want to feel pressured into opening a live account just to use their paper trading simulation
While free simulators are too basic.

They lack the realism and breadth of assets you need to understand before investing for-real.

You’re looking for a sandbox that will provide a safe environment to learn and practice with zero risk.

So that you can feel truly prepared for long-term financial security.

Ready To Manage Your Money Confidently? Here’s How.

This is a real-time stock trading simulator featuring US stocks, ETFs, options trading and cryptos and it even includes equities from the most popular global exchanges like Toronto, London, Tokyo, and more. You’ll practice trading building a diversified portfolio, and master complex investment strategies — all while building a solid foundation of financial knowledge.

The path to becoming a confident, responsible investor doesn’t have to be scary.

Imagine practicing in a space where mistakes are just lessons, not losses. A place where you can experiment freely, analyze your results in-depth, and build real-world investing skills with zero risk and no financial consequences.

To build your confidence, you need a dynamic, realistic platform – a place where you can see how global events and complex instruments actually interact with your strategies.

You need a place where you learn by doing and practice trading.

For 30+ Years, We’ve Helped Investors Bridge Theory & Practice

We understand the frustration of wanting to invest wisely but being met with overly complicated platforms and facing the substantial risk of the stock market.

That’s why New to Markets was created – to provide investors like you with the environment and education you need before risking your hard-earned savings on potentially costly mistakes.

Our mission is to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in finance.

For over 5 years, New to Markets has offered more than a simple stock market game.

It’s a comprehensive learning platform built on decades of experience providing realistic portfolio management tools to leading institutions and savvy individuals alike.

We’ve seen first-hand the power of active learning through practice trading.

This hands-on practice, combined with in-depth performance analytics and a realistic trading platform, helps you develop proven strategies, risk management techniques, and trading skills.

These are skills you can confidently take with you, wherever you choose to invest your money for real.

The Only Platform That Prepares Serious Beginners for Real Investing.

Unlike other simulators that push you towards risky, hyper-specialized trading, New to Markets offers something fundamentally different: Unmatched Breadth and Realism in a Single, Integrated Platform.

Free tools rarely provide the realistic trading mechanics that matter, like commissions or the ability to practice diverse asset classes like global stocks, bonds, mutual funds, options spreads, futures, forex, and even cryptocurrency all in one place. They don’t prepare you for the nuances of real-world trading across different exchanges and asset types.

New to Markets is the ultimate sandbox and stock market simulator for serious beginners precisely because it does provide this comprehensive, realistic environment for paper trading.

You get to build and manage a portfolio that reflects the complexity of the stock market, gaining confidence in handling scenarios you’ll actually face.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is New to Markets different from the paper trading offered by brokerage apps?

Brokerage paper trading is often tied to opening a live account and can be limited in its features or the assets you can practice with. New to Markets provides an independent experience. You are not required to open a live brokerage account to use New to Markets. Our platform offers significantly broader access to diverse global assets (stocks, bonds, options spreads, futures, forex, crypto, and more) all in one place, and includes in-depth portfolio analytics. We prepare you to make informed decisions before you commit to any specific broker.

How realistic is the New to Markets simulation? Is it just a game?

Many free simulators lack the detail needed to prepare you for real-world investing. New to Markets is different. We use real market data streams with standard delays like 15 minutes for US equities, common even on some live platforms.

We simulate real-world mechanics like commissions, fees, and margin requirements. You’ll experience the impact of costs and trading decisions, giving you a much more authentic understanding of how different strategies perform.

It’s designed as a professional-grade learning tool, not just a simple game.

I’m relatively new to investing and find traditional platforms intimidating. Is New to Markets suitable for beginners?

Absolutely! While our platform is powerful and realistic, it’s intended for serious learners, including those just starting out. Our user interface is designed for clarity, with tutorial videos and how-to guides integrated right into the trading pages. You won’t be overwhelmed by charts from the moment you login!

The Learn Center provides comprehensive, step-by-step tutorials (in video and article format) on everything from “Investing 101” and “How the Stock Market Works” to trading specific asset types and analyzing financial data. You can start with the basics and explore more complex topics as you become more familiar with investing.

What kind of assets and markets can I actually practice trading?

New to Markets offers an unparalleled breadth of trading options in a single platform, designed to let you practice building a truly diversified, global portfolio.

You can trade global stocks and ETFs from major international exchanges, (e.g. Longon, Tokyo, Shanghai, Frankfurt, Sao Paulo etc.)

US Mutual Funds, US Treasuries and Corporate Bonds, a wide range of Options (including 21 different options spreads), Futures, Forex (over 20 pairs), and the Top 100 Cryptocurrencies.

This extensive access allows you to explore different asset classes and markets safely before deciding where to allocate real capital.

You mention a “Learn Center.” What does that cover, is it just trading tutorials?

The Learn Center is a core part of the New to Markets experience and goes far beyond just teaching you how to place trades. It’s a comprehensive financial education hub. You’ll find structured content and videos covering:

Investing 101 Introduction to Investing Course: a10-chapter course that covers; how markets work, fundamental & technical analysis, options trading, an overview of different security types and more.

Accounting: basics of financial statements, key ratios for company analysis etc..

It’s designed to give you a holistic financial understanding that empowers you to make responsible, informed investment decisions, not just react to market movements.
