The Simulator

Practice the way you'd trade.

Pick a contract, size it and send it from the same ticket a live account uses. The Simulator fills it against real market trades, not a made-up price, so practice reads like the real thing.

What it does

Practice that behaves like a market.

The Simulator follows the same rules a real order meets, so the habits you build carry over.

Fills from real tradesAn order rests until the market actually trades at your price or better. Big orders can fill in parts.
Day ordersAn order that never fills ends at 4:00 PM ET, as a broker's day order would.
Stops and targetsSet a bracket on the chart and practice managing it: drag the stop, move the target.
Positions and tradesOpen positions, every fill and your closed trades, with a Simulator P&L.
Clearly labelledAn amber banner, an amber frame on the chart and a SIM tag on every position.
Kept apartPractice trades never go to a broker, are never copied, and never reach leaderboards or your stats.

Practice results don't predict real results. Real fills depend on your broker and the market at the time.

When you're ready

Switch to your broker.

The chart stays free. When you want the same ticket to send real orders to your own broker, add Alertsify Trade. Prefer just to chart? Pick No trading and the Simulator stays out of the way.

Is paper trading free on Alertsify?

Yes. Free members start in the Simulator with $25,000 in practice money. No card and no broker needed.

An order rests until the market really trades at your price or better, and a big order can fill in parts. An order that never fills ends at 4:00 PM ET.

Can I reset my practice account?

Yes. Reset starts the book over at $25,000.
