9. Stock Trainer
Have you heard of paper trading? It refers to the simulation of buying and selling stocks, or in simple terms, buying stocks using virtual money.
If you are still new and do not have enough starting capital, paper trading is highly encouraged so you can train yourself to choose suitable stocks and measure your investment performance.
Through Stock Trainer, you can choose global stock counters as well as local stock market counters.
