What is PaperPoly?

A new virtual portfolio starts with $1,000. The product states that prices refresh every 30 seconds and that simulated fills consider bid and ask rather than only a midpoint. This supports a more structured practice routine, but modeled fills and the refresh interval still differ from live order-book execution.

Review PnL, ROI, win rate and open-position value alongside the number of resolved bets behind each rate. A journal retains the reasoning for a position, while MCP lets an assistant search, place paper bets and retrieve statistics. Graduate certification uses the provider’s resolved-bet, duration and win-rate/ROI requirements; it is not an accredited qualification.

Who it is for

  • Beginners learning odds and position accounting.
  • Users keeping a journal of paper-trading theses.
  • Developers testing assistants against a simulated portfolio.

Getting started

Before you start: Paper positions and profits are simulated, not live executions.

  3. Review open and resolved positions; connect MCP only if using an assistant.

All trading in PaperPoly is simulated.

Useful links

What to check

  • Paper positions and profits are simulated, not live executions.
  • The provider’s certificate records its own thresholds and is not an accredited qualification.
  • The 40% Graduate win-rate threshold is not a universal skill benchmark because entry prices also determine returns.
  • Thirty-second data refreshes and modeled fills differ from live order-book execution.

Our take on PaperPoly

Virtual capital, journaling and bid/ask-aware modeling form a coherent practice workflow. The 30-second refresh and simulated fills limit execution realism, and the announced Pro tier remains future functionality.
