Learning to Trade Shouldn't Suck


I actively invest or trade (stocks, crypto, options, futures, etc.).

I passively invest only (ETFs, 401k, Robo-advisors).

I used to trade actively, but stopped/took a break.

I want to trade, but it seems too complicated/risky.

I've never traded, but I play Daily Fantasy Sports (DraftKings/FanDuel).

1. Which of the following best describes you?

Lack of knowledge and 'edge'. I need to understand the markets better.

Not having a clear strategy (buying on impulse).

The time required to research and watch charts.

The emotional stress / anxiety of losing money.

Following my own rules (lack of discipline).

The pressure of the evaluation rules (for Prop Firm traders).

I didn't find it hard, I just lost interest.

Yes, I'd like coaching and analysis of my simulated trades to learn faster.

Yes, I want to learn from and compete with others.

Yes, to test new strategies without stress.

Yes, if it is realistic and well-designed.

No, paper trading is boring because there's no money on the line.

3. If you could practice trading in a fun, competitive environment (leagues) with NO financial risk, would you find that useful?


It's boring / there are no stakes or competition.

It's not realistic compared to live markets.

Yes, I'm interested in the social aspect and seeing how others trade.

If you could learn trading/investing through competitive simulations (no monetary risk) that also offer education and coaching, would you try it?

I like competing against my friends / trash talk.

I like proving I'm smarter/better at analysis than others.

It makes watching the games more exciting.

No, I'm not interested in stocks or investing.

If you could learn trading/investing through competitive simulations (no monetary risk) alongside friends, would you try it?

I'm afraid of losing my hard-earned money.

The financial jargon (P/E, Options, Greeks) makes no sense to me.

It feels like gambling / the system is rigged.

I don't have the time to learn it properly.

I'm happy with my passive returns (ETFs/Index Funds).

Not interested. I will trust the professionals to manage my accounts

If you could learn by "playing" with fake money (no risk) and learning investing skills alongside friends, would you try it?
