Paper trading gives beginners a place to practise market decisions without risking real capital. Start by learning the platform, choosing a small set of liquid instruments, and writing simple rules before placing a simulated trade.
Create a routine
Record the setup, entry, stop level, target, quantity, and reason for every trade. Review the journal regularly to identify repeated strengths and mistakes.
Measure process
Do not judge the method from one or two trades. Focus on following the plan, managing risk, and collecting enough consistent observations to improve.
