FINZ IS PAPER TRADING. THE MONEY IS NOT REAL AND NEITHER ARE THE TRADES, BUT THE PRICES ARE. EVERY QUOTE AND CHART IS LIVE MARKET DATA.

A NEW ACCOUNT STARTS WITH $10,000. SPEND IT, LOSE IT, MAKE IT BACK. NOTHING IS AT RISK EITHER WAY.

PRESS SEARCH TO FIND A TICKER, OPEN ITS CARD, AND BUY. WHAT YOU HOLD SHOWS UP ON PORTFOLIO.

TAP A CARD TO OPEN IT. THE TRADE ROW HAS A QUANTITY AND A BUY / SELL PAIR. YOU CAN ONLY SELL WHAT YOU HOLD, AND ONLY BUY WHAT YOUR CASH COVERS.

STOCKS TRADE AT THE PRICE SHOWN, INCLUDING BEFORE AND AFTER THE BELL. THOSE QUOTES ARE LIVE.

THE GREEN OR RED FIGURE ON A CARD IS THE MOVE SINCE THE PREVIOUS SESSION CLOSED, SO AN OVERNIGHT GAP COUNTS AS PART OF TODAY.

GAIN/LOSS INSIDE THE CARD IS DIFFERENT: THAT IS MEASURED AGAINST WHAT YOU PAID, FOR AS LONG AS YOU HAVE HELD IT.

AN OPTION IS A BET ON WHERE A STOCK GOES BY A CERTAIN DATE. A CALL PROFITS WHEN IT RISES, A PUT WHEN IT FALLS.

ONE CONTRACT COVERS 100 SHARES, SO THE COST IS THE PREMIUM x 100. A $2.00 PREMIUM IS A $200 CONTRACT.

OPTIONS TRADE 9:30AM-4PM NEW YORK TIME. AFTER HOURS THE PRICES FREEZE, SO BUY PLACES A LIMIT ORDER INSTEAD: THE PRICE YOU SAW IS YOUR LIMIT, AND THE CASH IS SET ASIDE.

FROM THE OPENING BELL THE ORDER IS CHECKED EVERY MINUTE. IT FILLS AS SOON AS THE PREMIUM IS AT OR BELOW YOUR LIMIT, AND KEEPS WAITING UNTIL THE CONTRACT EXPIRES OR YOU CANCEL IT.

CONTRACTS SETTLE AUTOMATICALLY ON THEIR EXPIRATION DATE. ONE EXPIRING TODAY IS PINNED TO THE TOP OF YOUR OPTIONS LIST.

TRENDING IS WHAT THE MOST FINZ PLAYERS BOUGHT OR SOLD THIS SESSION. TRENDING OPTIONS IS THE CALLS AND PUTS THEY BOUGHT MOST THIS SESSION. MOVERS IS THE BIGGEST GAINS AND LOSSES IN THE MARKET.

SECTORS BROWSES BY INDUSTRY, AND EARNINGS LISTS WHO REPORTS NEXT.

OPEN ANY ASSET AND ITS INFO BOX DESCRIBES THE COMPANY AND HOW ITS LAST QUARTER WENT.

FOLLOW OTHER PLAYERS TO SEE THEIR POSTS AND THEIR PORTFOLIOS. ANY HOLDING CAN BE SHARED INTO A POST OR A TICKER CHAT.

THE LEADERBOARD RANKS THE TOP 100. YOU CAN SORT IT BY TOTAL VALUE, BY DOLLARS GAINED, OR BY PERCENT, OVER A DAY, A WEEK, A MONTH, OR ALL TIME.
