A Crypto Trading Simulator With a Real Trading Screen

Watch live candles, read the order book and place orders the way you would on an exchange. The difference is the balance: it is paper money you choose, from $10k to $1M. No order ever leaves the simulator, and you need no exchange account to use it.

// INSIDE THE SIMULATOR

What you can actually do in it

A demo account is only as useful as the screen it puts in front of you. These are the four parts you will spend most of your practice time in.

A trading screen, not a quiz

// SCREEN

The dashboard centers on a candlestick chart with six timeframes from one minute to one day. Beside it sit an order book, a watchlist of up to 30 starred pairs and a Technicals card. Your own fills and resting orders are drawn on the chart.

6 TIMEFRAMES LIVE CANDLES

Orders you place by hand

// MANUAL ORDERS

Buy or sell at market, at an exact limit price, or at an offset in percent from the current price. A buy can carry a take-profit, a stop-loss and a trailing stop. To move a resting order, drag its line on the chart.

3 ORDER MODES STOPS ON BUYS

Bots that share your balance

// AUTOMATION

When you want a rule to do the clicking, start a grid, DCA, dip-buy or signal bot. A Strategy Router, a rebalancer basket and TradingView alerts are there too. They all trade the same paper balance as your hand-placed orders.

7 TOOLS ONE BALANCE

A portfolio page to look back on

// REVIEW

The portfolio page charts your paper equity over 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days or all time. Its calendar marks each day's value change, traded volume or number of fills. That makes it easy to find the day a decision was made.

EQUITY CHART DAILY CALENDAR
// FIRST SESSION

A first practice session, start to finish

Nothing here asks for a card, a phone number or an exchange login.

1

Choose a balance and a venue

Sign up, pick $10k, $50k, $100k or $1M in paper money, then choose whose prices to watch: WOO X, Binance, Bitfinex or Bitkub.

2

Trade a pair by hand

Star a few pairs, open one, and place a small market buy with a stop-loss under it. Then watch the stop line on the chart as the price moves.

3

Hand a rule to a bot

Once a manual idea feels like a repeatable rule, replay it as a bot backtest on past candles, then start that bot on the live screen.

// WAYS TO PRACTICE

Three ways to practice crypto trading, and what each one leaves out

Practice is useful when it copies the part you want to learn. Each of these copies a different part, so the right one depends on the question you are asking.

Exchange test environments and demo modes

Some exchanges run a separate test environment, often called a testnet, or a demo mode inside the main app. Their big strength is the interface. You learn the exact buttons and order forms of that one exchange.

As of this writing, many of these run on their own order books with test funds, so prices and depth can drift away from the main market. Some are aimed at developers testing code more than at people learning to trade. Check the exchange's own docs for how its version works today.

A simulator on live prices

A simulator like this one takes the live public feed and lets you act on it with a paper balance. The candles, the spread in the order book and the pace of the market are the ones traders are seeing right now.

What it cannot copy is your effect on the market. A paper order is never seen by other traders, so it never waits behind theirs and never pushes the price. On a busy pair that matters little; on a quiet one it can matter a lot.

A spreadsheet or a trade journal

Writing down each idea before you act, with an entry, an exit and a reason, is the cheapest practice there is. It trains the habit of planning a trade instead of reacting to a candle.

Its weakness is honesty. It is easy to log an entry after the fact, or to skip the one that went badly. A journal also cannot place an order, so a stop you meant to set never gets tested.

Using them together

The three combine well. Keep the journal for your reasoning, and use the simulator to see whether the order you planned does what you expected when price arrives. Every paper fill is stamped with its time and price, which keeps the journal honest.

None of them reproduces the feeling of having your own money at stake. That is not something any practice tool can offer, so treat calm decisions here as a skill still being built rather than one already proven.

// THE TOOLKIT

Every tool on the simulator, and its range

Each row is something you can open and use on day one. The right column gives its range or setting.

Tool What it does Range
Candlestick chart Live candles with your fills and resting orders drawn on top. 1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 1d
Chart indicators Overlays such as Bollinger Bands and VWAP, plus RSI, MACD and Stochastic panes. 9 to choose from
Technicals card Rates 26 common indicators as buy, neutral or sell, then sums them up. 6 timeframes
Order book The best bids and asks for the pair on screen, refreshed every 3 seconds. 8 levels a side
Watchlist Starred pairs with last price and change, kept separately for each exchange. Up to 30 pairs
Manual orders Market, limit or offset, sized in the coin or the quote currency. Take-profit, stops
Bots Grid, DCA, dip-buy and signal bots running on the paper balance. 2 / 5 / 3 / 2 at once
Backtests Replay a bot setup on past candles, or test up to 100 settings in one sweep. Up to 90 days

Paper bots on an account nobody signs into for 14 days are stopped, with an email warning at day 11. The balance and its history stay.

// PRICE SOURCES

Four exchanges' markets, one practice balance

The dashboard can show WOO X, Binance, Bitfinex or Bitkub, and you switch between them in one click. The pair list, chart, order book and watchlist all follow the exchange you pick.

Your paper balance is shared across all four, so moving between venues never splits your money. Each paper fill is charged the fee rate of the exchange it was placed on, which lets you see how the same order costs different amounts on different venues.

// SIMULATOR FAQ

Crypto trading simulator FAQ

01 // DEMO ACCOUNT Is this the same as an exchange's demo account?

Not quite. It is a separate site that reads public prices from four exchanges and keeps a paper balance of its own. You never log in to an exchange, and nothing you do here appears on one.

02 // NO MONEY Can I practice crypto trading without spending any money?

Yes. Signing up is free, there is nothing to buy, and every order uses paper money. Vectixs never asks for an API key, because it never connects to an exchange account.

03 // STOPS How do stop-loss and trailing stops work here?

You set them as a percent below a buy's fill price. A trailing stop follows the highest price since the fill and never moves down. When price touches the stop in force, the simulator sells at market, so a sudden gap can fill below the stop.

04 // EXCHANGES Can I switch between exchanges?

Yes, from the dashboard. The chart, order book, pair list and watchlist change to the exchange you pick. Your paper balance stays the same one across all four.

05 // START OVER Can I wipe everything and start again?

Yes. A reset from your profile puts the balance back to a starting figure you choose and clears the paper trade history. It also stops any running bots, so none is left acting on coins that are gone.

06 // FIRST STEPS What should I try first in a trading simulator?

Start with one liquid pair and one order type. Place a market buy, attach a stop-loss, and watch how the stop line sits on the chart. Add limit orders and bots once that feels routine.

07 // TAB CLOSED Do my paper orders keep working when I close the tab?

Yes. Resting orders, stops and bots are checked on the server, not in your browser. The one exception is long absence: if nobody signs in for 14 days, paper bots are stopped.

08 // TECHNICALS Does the Technicals card tell me what to trade?

No. It is arithmetic over recent candles that reports what 26 standard indicators read. Nothing on the dashboard places an order because of it, and indicators often disagree.

09 // LOOK BACK How do I review what I did last week?

Open the portfolio page. The equity chart shows the balance over time, and the calendar lets you step back month by month to any day's change, volume and number of fills.

10 // EDIT ORDER Can I change or cancel an order after placing it?

Yes. Drag a resting order's line on the chart to reprice it, or cancel it from the open orders list. Close Now fills it straight away at the market price instead of waiting.
