The price is moving. Press Buy when you think it is low and Sell when you think it is high. You have 60 seconds, then the game compares your trading with simple buy and hold.
Real Bybit prices: 1-minute candles of USDT perpetual contracts on TSLA, NVDA, AAPL, AMZN, GOOGL, MSFT, META and COIN, 160 US trading sessions from April 30 to September 25, 2026 (fetched September 28, 2026). Each game replays 10:30 a.m. to the 4:00 p.m. close in 60 seconds. Every buy and sell pays a 0.1% fee.
Press Start and the price begins to move. One button does everything: the first press buys 100 shares, the next press sells them, and you can repeat as often as you like before the clock runs out. Green dots mark your buys, red dots mark your sells, and a dashed line shows your entry price while you hold.
When time is up, any open position is sold at the last price. The game then shows what you would have made by buying 100 shares at the first second and doing nothing else.
Studies of investor behavior often find that frequent traders earn less than people who buy and hold, partly because of timing mistakes. Play a few rounds and see how often your trading beats the simple strategy. Learn more in buy and hold vs active trading and dollar cost averaging explained.

Your shares are sold automatically at the final price and the result counts toward your profit.
Buy and hold is the simplest strategy there is. Beating it consistently is the real test of timing skill.
