A stock market game your class will actually care about
Give every student a practice account with $100,000 in fake money. They pick stocks, crypto, or forex at real-time prices, then watch the leaderboard to see who comes out on top. No signup fees. No credit cards. Just open the app and go.
Three steps. That's it.
Most teachers have their class trading within the first five minutes.
Create a classroom
Takes about 30 seconds. You get a join code to share with students. Write it on the board, drop it in Google Classroom, text it out — whatever works.
Students join and start trading
They enter the code, pick a display name, and they're in. Each student gets practice money to trade stocks, crypto, and forex. Real prices, fake stakes.
Leaderboard does the rest
Daily, weekly, and monthly rankings show who's ahead. Students check it constantly. You didn't have to assign homework — they're already hooked.
Why teachers keep using it
We didn't build this in a boardroom. We talked to teachers first.
It's free
No budget line items. No purchase orders. No emailing the IT department. You sign up, create a class, and that's it. Zero cost, now and later.
Kids actually engage
The leaderboard makes it competitive. Students check back between classes, compare portfolios at lunch, argue about Tesla vs. Bitcoin. You don't have to force participation.
Real market data
These aren't made-up numbers. Students see actual prices for Apple, Ethereum, EUR/USD — the same tickers they hear about on the news. Makes classroom discussions way more interesting.
Works on any phone
No laptops required. No computer lab booking. Students use whatever phone they already have in their pocket. Android, iPhone — doesn't matter.
Where it fits
High school economics is the obvious one — but we've seen it used in personal finance electives, after-school investing clubs, college intro-to-business courses, and even summer enrichment programs. One teacher runs a semester-long competition where the top three portfolios get extra credit. Another uses weekly trades as a warm-up exercise every Monday. It's flexible enough that you can shape it around whatever you're already teaching.
