How to use Tradeground

A place to practise trading crypto with pretend money at real prices. You start with $10,000 of practice money and can buy and sell over 380 coins, any time of day: crypto trades 24/7.

• Prices are real, so you learn how coins really move.
• Each buy and sell has a 0.1% fee, like a real exchange: 10 cents per $100.
• The smallest order is $1.
• No real money is ever involved, so mistakes cost nothing.

Everything you have right now: your cash, the coins you hold, their total value and how much you are up or down.

The Bitcoin is worth $1,048.95, not $1,050: the $1 fee on the $1,000 buy left $999 of coin, and $999 up 5% is $1,048.95.
