Crypto Trading 101

Beat our Algorithm for access to the Trading Lab.

Premise

Your friend, Buddy, is bragging about trading cyptocurrency. He says that he recently made gains of 3.1%, and he challenges you to make better trading decisions than him.

You start with an identical porfolio, make the same number of decisions, trade at the same prices, and get the same sentiment reports.

Playing

Every time Buddy makes a trade, he sends you a text message. He picks the cryptocurrency. You decide whether you want to buy, hold, or sell some of it.

The game starts in the past and ends today. This morning's prices are used to determine the winner. The largest-value portfolio wins. In the rare event of a tie, it goes to Buddy.

Three Levels

How to Win

Learn from our algorithm's mistakes.

Here is a log of its trades from the past year.*

Reference cryptocurrency charts to see what happened to prices after each trading decision. Notice when Buddy (the algorithm) loses money on a trade. If you profit more than him, you will unlock laboratory access.

Educational Value

This game tests your ability to read charts well enough to recognize trading mistakes.

If you outperform the algorithm, you will be offered access to our trading laboratory - where you can test market predictions using real prices (updated every 30 minutes), without risking any money.
