How Mock Trading Works on FundScroll

Mock trading on FundScroll means placing investment positions using virtual money while tracking real market prices. You experience exactly what a real trade would look like — gains, losses, volatility — without any actual capital at risk.

Why Mock Trading Matters

The biggest mistake new crypto investors make is learning with real money. A single bad week in a volatile market can wipe out months of savings. Mock trading removes that risk entirely while keeping the learning real.

On FundScroll, mock positions use live CoinGecko price data refreshed every five seconds. Your P&L moves with the market. You feel what it's like to hold through a 15% dip or catch a 40% run — before it matters financially.

How to Place a Mock Position

1. Sign in to your FundScroll account (free tier works)
2. Go to Coins — browse hundreds of live assets
3. Select a coin and choose your mock position size
4. Confirm the mock trade — it's added to your portfolio instantly
5. Track it from the Dashboard or Analysis page

Your mock portfolio shows total value, individual position performance, and risk metrics at all times.

What FundScroll Tracks in Mock Mode

• Live P&L — how much you'd have made or lost if this were real
• Concentration risk — whether too much of your portfolio is in one asset
• Volatility exposure — how much price swings affect your total position
• Downside scenarios — what happens to your portfolio if the market drops 20%, 40%, or 60%

Upgrading from Mock to Real

When your mock strategy is working consistently, you can upgrade it to a real position. FundScroll Premium and Deluxe plans unlock real on-chain position tracking through your connected wallet. The transition is intentional — you earn real trades by proving your strategy in mock mode first.

The Free Plan Limit

Mock trading is unlimited on the free plan. There's no cap on coins, position sizes, or how long you track mock investments. The free plan is designed to be genuinely useful — not a crippled trial.
