Wall Street Survivor

What Wall Street Survivor is

Wall Street Survivor is a web-based educational tool for practicing portfolio management with virtual money. A free account starts with $100,000 in virtual funds, and no credit card is required. Users can practice trading stocks, ETFs, options, and crypto with real market data. The site also offers free investing courses for beginner and advanced learners, as well as personal finance topics.

Users can join contests or create private contests with friends, family, or co-workers. An Ideas section presents stocks to watch. Simulator tools include symbol lookup, portfolio positions, order history, rankings, and market, limit, and stop orders. The FAQ describes coverage of more than 7,000 stocks on recognized U.S. marketplaces, subject to eligibility criteria. Displayed price estimates may be delayed 15–20 minutes, although orders placed during market hours execute at real-time bid/ask prices. Security types, trade counts, margin, short selling, and other rules depend on each simulation’s contest parameters. The site says its information is for informational purposes, not actual trading or market advice. It was founded in 1990 and is a property of Stock-Trak Inc.
