FAQ
Paper Trading FAQ
Does paper trading match live trading exactly?
No. It is a simulation. It can model prices and fills, but it cannot fully reproduce liquidity, market impact, or user emotion.
Can users reset a paper account?
Yes. Users can reset or create separate paper accounts to practice different playbooks and review them independently.
