Theory is truly understood when you put it to the test.
Learning by doing
Diversification, risk, return, volatility: concepts that become concrete when your own choices move the portfolio.
Competition motivates
A leaderboard among classmates turns the exercise into a game: students follow the markets even outside the classroom.
Free mistakes
Making mistakes with virtual money costs nothing and teaches a lot: it is the right place to try strategies and understand why they do not work.
Real markets
Stocks, ETFs, bonds, commodities, cryptocurrencies and currencies from around the world, with real market prices.
A league tailored to your course, ready in a minute.
You create the league, the students join
Share the invite link or the 8-character code: anyone who signs up with the link joins the league immediately. Up to 200 members per league.
Decide what counts on the leaderboard
Choose which instrument classes count for the league: only stocks for an equity course, only bonds for fixed income, or everything to work on diversification.
Seasons and resets
Restart the leaderboard from zero whenever you want, on a specific date or automatically every week, month or quarter. Final leaderboards stay in the archive.
The class identity
Give the league a name and an image: the course, the academic year, the class. Each student sees their own position and that of their classmates.
Members under control
As founder you can remove anyone who is not part of the course and readmit them at any time.
Class against class
Private leagues also compete with each other in the league leaderboard, based on the members' average: a tournament between courses, classes or universities.
All the tools of a real investor, without risking a single euro.
€100,000.00 in virtual money
Capital to manage as if it were real, with concentration and liquidity limits that keep the simulation realistic.
Portfolio analytics
Returns, composition by instrument class and the history of every trade; on the overall leaderboard also the maximum drawdown, to assess the risk taken.
Orders like at the bank
Buy and sell at market price, with limit and stop-loss orders to protect your gains.
Leaderboards and badges
Besides the course league there are the weekly and overall leaderboards of all investors, with badges to collect.
Anywhere, even on a smartphone
It works in the browser, nothing to install: in class, at home or on the train.
Share your results
A ready-to-post image with your leaderboard position, to challenge friends and classmates.
Four ways to use leagues in class.
🧺 Diversification workshop
All instrument classes on the leaderboard and a one-month season: at the end, the results of the most concentrated and the most diversified portfolios are compared.
🏦 Fixed income course
Only bonds count on the leaderboard: students build a bond portfolio and follow the effect of interest rates on prices.
⚡ Weekly trading challenge
Automatic reset every Monday: a new winner every week, limit and stop-loss orders to manage risk, and a class discussion of the best strategies.
🏛️ Tournament between classes or universities
Each class creates its own league and the league leaderboard decides the best course. Perfect for an end-of-semester event.
There are no fees or taxes in the game: one more starting point for discussing in class how much real costs reduce returns.
From the first lesson to the final leaderboard.

Everything you need to know.
Is it really free?
Yes, for teachers and students. No credit card is needed and no real money is invested.
Is it suitable for secondary schools too?
Yes: Fanta-Trade is open to anyone aged 14 or over. It is a simulation game for educational and entertainment purposes.
How many students can join a league?
Up to 200 per league. For larger courses you can create several leagues, for example one per class, and compare them in the league leaderboard.
Are the prices real?
Yes, they come from financial data providers and may be delayed compared with the market. For simplicity, stocks in currencies other than the euro are treated as if they were in euros.
