The simulator is the ideal way to learn how BitBrokerTrade works without financial risk. You trade with a fictional amount, but based on real, real-time price data from an actual exchange. This shows you exactly how the trader would perform with your intended capital, without risking a single euro.
Always start with the simulator before using real money. This way you get comfortable with the interface, the settings, and how the trader behaves in different market conditions.

​
Activate the simulator

1

Navigate to Exchanges

Log in to BitBrokerTrade. In the left column, click Settings, then Exchanges, and then Add exchange.
2

Select Simulator

Click the “Simulator” button to choose the simulator as the exchange.
3

Set a name

In the Name field, enter Simulator. This makes it easy to tell the simulator apart from your real exchanges.
4

Choose an exchange for price data

Under Exchange, choose the exchange whose price data you want to use. This is the exchange the simulator bases its real-time price information on. Preferably choose an exchange you also plan to open an account with.
5

Enter a starting amount

Under Starting amount, enter the amount you want to use as fictional investment capital. Choose an amount similar to what you would actually deposit later, so you get a realistic picture of the results.
6

Add the simulator

Click Add. The connection is active immediately.
The simulator has exactly the same interface as a real exchange connection in BitBrokerTrade. Everything you set up and learn in the simulator works the same way with a real exchange.

​
Connect a trader to the simulator

Now that the simulator is active, connect a trader to the simulator connection. Follow the step-by-step guide on Trader settings. When setting up the trader, choose the Simulator as the exchange.
