Would be 5 stars BUT..

The interface needs a option to show 1 day return vs 1 week, 1month, 3months, Year to date, 1Y, and all time stock stats

Great Sim Weird ads

I got this game for my kid so he could learn more about the stock market since I’m a broker. The only thing I’d the ads are for Temu and they show some inappropriate images. That’s the only thing I think that is bad.

Not enough foreign companies

A lot of companies are missing. Like Ferrari or TSMC. Those are major and I don’t see why you wouldn’t have them

I wish my hard work had a reward

I do really like this app but I wish it was more like the GameStock app. It’s paper trading but with actual cash prizes. If MarketSim had actual rewards for doing good I’d feel more motivated.

Overall, I enjoy the app. I just want my effort to have a reward so I use the other app mainly for my paper trading since it’s no capital risk either.
