Stock Trading Competition

What is a Live Stock Trading Competition?

The Live Stock Market Trading Competition is an exclusive initiative by ISFM to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world trading. This competition provides students with a hands-on opportunity to trade in the live stock market using real-time data, applying all the strategies and tools they’ve learned in class. Participants will compete under professional supervision, simulating actual trading conditions.

Whether you are a beginner or an aspiring pro, this is your chance to test your skills, build confidence, and experience the thrill of real-time decision-making in the stock market.
