A paper trading app in Nepal lets you buy and sell real shares — NABIL, NICA, GBIME, RELIANCE — with virtual money and live-simulated prices. You learn exactly how the market moves and how orders work, without risking a single rupee. For most Nepali beginners, it is the smartest possible first step before opening a Demat account.
What is a paper trading app?
“Paper trading” comes from the days traders tracked imaginary trades on paper. A modern paper trading app does the same thing digitally: you get a virtual balance, place real buy/sell orders on real symbols, and your position gains or loses value as prices move — identical maths to a real account, minus the real money.
Why paper trade before real NEPSE money?
Most new traders lose money in their first year, paying expensive tuition to the market. A paper trading app moves that learning curve off your bank balance:
- Learn the platform — order tickets, stop-loss, targets — without fear of a wrong click.
- Test a strategy across dozens of trades and see if it actually works.
- Build discipline — practise cutting losses and letting winners run.
- Understand NEPSE quirks — circuits, trading hours, IPOs — in a safe sandbox.

What StockYatra gives you
StockYatra is a paper trading app built in Nepal. Every new account gets 10,000 free coins and the full trading terminal:
Crucially, the app mirrors a real broker terminal: the same order ticket, the same candlestick charts, the same stop-loss and take-profit that fire automatically and push you a notification the instant they hit. So the muscle memory you build here transfers directly when you trade for real.
