How it works

How Coach Jag works

Coach Jag lives right on top of the real JagSim sim. No separate school to log into, no lessons off to the side, just help right where you're trading.

1

Tap any term to learn it

See a word you don't know yet? Candlestick, limit order, buying power, spread. Tap it and Coach Jag gives you a plain-English definition on the spot, no dictionary tab, no leaving the screen.

2

Run a guided walkthrough

Coach Jag walks you through the actual chart and order ticket one step at a time: place your first trade, read a candlestick, understand your P&L. You're clicking the same buttons you'll always use, not watching a demo.

3

Learn by doing, zero risk

Every walkthrough runs on your real practice account with $100k in virtual cash. You place real orders and watch what happens, and since none of it's real money, there's nothing to lose while it clicks.

Quick guides

Quick Guides

Short, hands-on walkthroughs where Coach Jag runs you through the real chart and order ticket, one step at a time.

Place Your First Trade Free

Walk the real order ticket end to end so you can pick a stock, set a quantity, and place a paper order on your own.

Read a Candlestick Chart Pro

Learn what each candle's body and wicks mean so you can tell an up day from a down day at a glance.

Market vs Limit Orders Pro

See the difference between taking the current price and naming your own, so you can pick the right order type every time.

What Is a Stop-Loss Pro

Set a practice stop on a live position so you understand the price level where an exit order would trigger.

Understand Your P&L Pro

Break down your profit and loss so you can read cost basis, unrealized gains, and what actually moved your balance.

Options Basics: Calls & Puts Pro

Learn what a call and a put are, plus strike and expiration, so you can read a real options chain without guessing.

What Is Buying Power Pro

See how buying power is calculated so you know exactly how much of a position your account can support.

The Bid-Ask Spread Pro

Spot the gap between the bid and the ask on the ticket so you understand the price you really pay to get in and out.

Why it's different

Every other sim hands you a blank chart

The only sim with a coach built in

Every other paper trader hands you a blank chart and wishes you luck. JagSim puts a plain-English guide right on top of it. Tap any term to see what it means, or run a step-by-step walkthrough on the real order ticket. No separate course to buy, no 40 open tabs. The lesson lives inside the thing you're already using.

No advice, by design

Coach Jag will never tell you what to buy, when to sell, or where a stock is headed. That's not a limitation we bolted on, it's the whole point. It teaches you the process (how a limit order works, how to read your own P&L) so you can make your own calls. You learn the skill instead of renting someone else's opinion.

You learn on the actual product

The walkthroughs run on the same live chart and order ticket you'll practice with, not a cartoon demo. When Coach Jag shows you how to place your first trade, you're placing a real (virtual) trade. There's nothing to transfer later, it's the same screen the whole time.

It meets you where you already are

Most people learning to trade start by asking an answer engine or searching "what is a stop-loss." Coach Jag is that answer, except it's sitting right next to the chart instead of buried in a forum from 2014. Ask the question in your head, get the definition on the screen, then try it in the same breath.

FAQ

Questions, answered straight

Is this investment advice?

No. Coach Jag never gives picks, predictions, price targets, or buy and sell suggestions. It defines terms and walks you through how the tools work. Every decision on the account is yours. We're an educational simulator, not an advisor.

Do I have to pay?

No. Free gets you a real taste: a handful of key terms defined on tap plus the first walkthrough, so you can place your first trade with a guide. Pro is $4.99 a month and unlocks the full glossary and every walkthrough. Try free first, upgrade only if you want the rest.

Is my money real?

No. Everything on JagSim is virtual. You practice with simulated cash on real market data, so you can learn how trades, orders, and P&L actually behave without a single real dollar on the line.

Can I ask it questions like a chatbot?

No, and that's on purpose. Coach Jag isn't a chatbot you argue with about stocks. It defines any term you tap, and it runs guided walkthroughs on the chart and order ticket. It will never tell you what to buy or where the market is going. It teaches the process, not opinions.

What do I get with Pro?

The full picture. Pro ($4.99 a month) unlocks the complete glossary (every term, not just the starter set) and all the step-by-step walkthroughs: reading a candlestick chart, market vs limit orders, stop-losses, understanding your P&L, buying power, the bid-ask spread, and calls and puts. It's the whole learn-by-doing track built into the sim.

Who is it for?

Smart beginners who'd rather learn to trade by doing than gamble their way through it. If you want to actually understand what a limit order or a candlestick is before you touch real money, this is built for you. You bring the curiosity, Coach Jag handles the plain-English part.
