01 May Bitfinex Re-launches Paper Trading

Posted at 14:57h in Education, Paper Trading, Trading, Tutorial by

With Bitfinex’s Paper Trading platform, customers can now trade without putting any capital at risk. New and small investors can learn how to trade, while sophisticated professionals and institutional investors can backtest trading strategies to see how they perform. Paper Trading is the perfect way to hone your trading edge in real market conditions until you’re ready to place a trade with real capital.

Trade the Most Popular Digital Assets Without Risk

Bitfinex is proud to announce our revamped Paper Trading platform, a risk free way to trade in a demo account without any potential of real loss. Paper trading is beneficial for both experienced and beginner traders. 

Beginners can use our Paper Trading platform to learn the basics and fundamentals of trading, like placing orders, setting stops, managing risk, with real market conditions and momentum. Experienced traders can experiment with and backtest new trading strategies without risking the capital in their Bitfinex account.

Our paper trading platform has launched with 18 spot and 16 perpetual trading pairs including the most popular digital assets like BTC, ETH, SOL, and MATIC. Paper Trading simulates Bitfinex’s live trading environment, and mirrors the actual exchange order book, and leverage available on the live trading exchange.

With paper trading, we are dramatically lowering the barrier to entry for algorithmic trading tools and data, which typically have only been accessible to institutional traders and funds. Now, even retail traders can begin using tools that were previously only available to the pros.

Traders on our Paper Trading platform have access to all the advanced tools available to Bitfinex traders, including our recently added Spread Ladder tool, which lets users make incremental trades around specific price points for seamless entry and exit of positions.

Login to Bitfinex and get started with Paper Trading today!
