Every new trader in Nepal faces the same wall: to learn, you have to trade — but trading for real means risking money you can’t afford to lose while you’re still making beginner mistakes. A paper trading app knocks that wall down. And StockYatra is the one built for Nepal.
Real markets, virtual money
StockYatra is a paper-trading simulator on live NEPSE data — the prices, candles and ticks are real, but you trade with virtual coins. You start with 10,000 free coins, no KYC and no demat, and can practise 91 live stocks across NEPSE, India’s NSE and US stocks. It’s the closest thing to real trading, minus the real consequences.
Everything a Nepali trader needs to learn
It isn’t a watered-down demo. StockYatra gives you genuine trading tools and a learning system around them:
- Live NEPSE data — real prices and candlestick charts.
- Long, short & leverage — with real margin math.
- Automatic stop-loss & target — risk controls that actually fire.
- Session replay — re-trade a past market session to learn deliberately.
- Lessons, XP & leaderboard — learn as you practise, and climb an honest scoreboard.
Built for the markets you follow
StockYatra speaks your market. It is built around NEPSE — how to get started, market wraps and movers — across 30+ live Nepali symbols and the NEPSE Index. Built in Nepal, open to anyone, anywhere.

StockYatra in late 2026: what has changed since this was written
StockYatra keeps shipping, so here is the current picture in one place. Everything below is free — there is no premium tier, no subscription, and real money is never required.
- Three markets, one wallet. Nepal’s NEPSE (31 stocks, Rs.), India’s NSE (30 large caps, ₹) and US stocks on the “Forex” board (30, $) — 91 live-simulated stocks from the same 10,000 starting coins. How the three boards work.
- A community inside the app. Global chat for every verified trader, friend requests, private direct messages and the Yatra Users directory. The community update.
- Yatra Bazaar. A cosmetics shop — frames, titles, banners, chat bubbles, name colours and trophies — paid for only with coins you earned by trading and learning, then equipped, gifted or pinned on your profile. Inside the Bazaar.
- Everything else still free. Rs 0 per trade, the 57-course academy, leagues and the live leaderboard, achievements and the Trader Card, price alerts, watchlist and session replay — on iOS, Android and the web terminal with one account. Why it is Nepal’s top paper trading app · the complete feature list.
