Jersey City, New Jersey, October 15 (Reuters/PR Newswire) — Moomoo, a leading global investment and trading platform, has opened registration and trading for its third annual Global Simulation Trading Competition, marking the third consecutive year of its partnership with Nasdaq TotalView® to advance investor education.
As part of Moomoo’s ongoing commitment to helping investors build practical market knowledge, this year’s competition is themed “Real Market, Real Edge.” Participants can test their strategies under real market conditions using Moomoo’s simulated trading feature and Nasdaq’s professional-grade market data, all without risking real capital, while engaging in a vibrant, community-driven competition with over 31 million investors worldwide.
The competition runs from October 12 to November 20 (Eastern Time) and introduces AI Companions for the first time. Participants can choose from four different types of AI assistants based on their investment philosophy and strategy: Steady Explorer, Sector Navigator, Short-term Sniper, and Quant Trader. Investors from the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Malaysia, and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region are eligible to compete for a share of $200,000 in trading vouchers while gaining hands-on experience with professional investment resources.
Experience the real market with Nasdaq TotalView®
Reflecting Moomoo and Nasdaq’s shared commitment to investor education, all participants will receive one month of complimentary access to Nasdaq TotalView®, Nasdaq’s comprehensive depth-of-book market data feed. By providing a more detailed view of order book levels and market activity, TotalView® helps participants gain deeper market insights, better understand market dynamics, and evaluate trading strategies using professional-grade market data.
Throughout the competition, participants will be provided with $100,000 in virtual funds to trade U.S. stocks, ETFs, and options during pre-market, regular trading, and after-hours sessions. Participants can test their ideas, evaluate strategies, and gain real-world trading experience in a market-like environment without risking real capital.
Introducing AI Companions: A New Dimension in Trading Research
This year’s competition introduces an innovative feature—AI Companions—to enhance the simulated trading experience with research support. Participants can choose from four AI assistants, each with a distinct focus: Steady Explorer emphasizes fundamental value and long-term growth; Sector Navigator focuses on emerging sectors and key catalysts; Short-term Sniper concentrates on technical indicators and short-term price movements; and Quant Trader specializes in quantitative models and algorithmic trading.
These AI Companions provide round-the-clock research support, whether participants are analyzing earnings-driven volatility, exploring sector themes, interpreting charts, or evaluating trading logic. Each assistant presents market insights and analysis from its unique perspective, helping participants ask more precise questions, consider diverse viewpoints, and structure their research more effectively. Integrated with Nasdaq TotalView® and Moomoo’s professional trading tools, AI Companions create a unified environment for exploring investment ideas, testing strategies, and learning from real market activity.
A $200,000 reward, along with the opportunity to appear on the Nasdaq Tower in Times Square, Manhattan
Participants can compete for a share of $200,000 in trading vouchers, and top performers may also gain global recognition for their market insights and competition results. The top three global winners and regional champions will receive exclusive Moomoo x Nasdaq trophies; the top ten participants in each region will receive Moomoo x Nasdaq certificates.
Some selected participants will also have the opportunity to be featured on the Nasdaq Tower in Times Square, New York. Final selections will be based on participants’ performance in the competition and their contributions to the Moomoo community, with their investment journeys and achievements potentially displayed on one of the world’s most iconic digital billboards.
Neil McDonald, CEO of Moomoo US, said: “Paper trading allows investors to put ideas into practice, understand how the market responds, and refine strategies without risking real capital.
