You do not need a Demat account, a broker, or a single rupee to start learning the market. The smartest Nepali beginners practise share trading for free first — drilling NEPSE order placement, stop-losses and strategy on a simulator — and only go live once they are consistent.
Practise NEPSE trading in four steps
On a free paper trading app like StockYatra, each step takes seconds: open the app, search a NEPSE name you know, set an entry, stop-loss and target on the order ticket, then journal the result.
Practice vs a real Demat account
A real Demat account is where you will eventually trade — but it is the wrong place to make your first mistakes. Compare the two:
When you are ready for the real thing, our NEPSE onboarding guide walks through Demat, Mero Share and TMS.
Why practising first pays off
The biggest gift of free practice is permission to be wrong. You can test a strategy across 50 trades, blow up a virtual account, and learn precisely why — all before a single rupee is at stake. Master the risk-management rules here, where they are cheap.
Keep it realistic
Paper trading has one blind spot: emotions are muted when the money is not real. Close that gap — use realistic position sizes, honour your stop-losses, and keep a journal. On StockYatra, live P&L still gives practice the feel of the real thing:
