About
TradingLife is an immersive, loop-based trading simulation made for traders and anyone interested in trading.
You lost everything—your capital, your confidence, even your last way out was erased by the market.
Just as despair finally hollowed you out, a rift in time opens up and pulls you into real historical price action, giving you one chance to start over.
This time, you swear you’ll take back everything that should have been yours.
But the rift doesn’t open for free—it runs on profit as fuel.
At every settlement, you must be profitable. Otherwise, the rift collapses, and the loop begins again.
Each round, you randomly draw an instrument and “travel” to a random week in history.
To prevent memory and information advantages, the game “future-shifts” time and hides key price information, forcing you to make decisions using only what you can see in the moment.
Every 4 rounds form one settlement cycle:
Net profit > 0 during the cycle → earn rewards and move forward
Net profit ≤ 0 → the loop resets, and you begin a new “life”
Your goal isn’t to “predict the market.”
It’s to survive repeated settlements, review your actions, restart, and gradually forge a trading system that’s stable, repeatable, and transferable to real trading.
All candlestick data comes from real historical 1-minute bars and is built directly into the game—no extra downloads required.
Currently supported markets: Crypto / Gold (XAU) / Forex (FX)
Real-time price presentation is generated based on the current 1-minute bar’s OHLC and recent volatility patterns, using algorithms to make the rhythm and “feel” closer to live markets.
Indicators, timeframes, drawing tools, and a full order system (including limit orders, breakout orders, and more)
Journaling system: customizable journal templates to record entry rationale, risk plans, execution details, and emotional state
Journal tables support filtering and statistical analysis: compare performance across different trade types and quickly identify what truly works for you
Any historical round you’ve traded can be replayed indefinitely.
Use it to correct mistakes, validate strategies, and train discipline—until the right actions become automatic.
Sharpen the blade before the fight.
Loop again and again, until you can confidently—
live the trading life.

It is what its being shown, a simple trading game that uses historical data and a way to test your trading strategies and pattern reading before you trade for real in the real markets. Pro: Things that I like about the game 1. Candle Bar by bar fast forward, track data and get results of your strategy without waiting 2. I can infinitely practice candle and pattern reading in random charts in a way you cannot cherry pick or refer to real charts data. 3. I can test my strategy and refine my entry points criteria, and develop more strategies for different scenarios 4. Free account on tradingview does not have bar replay, so you can use this to practice. 5. Dev is responsive and active in the discussion forum 6. There are black market options to increase your starting cash amount, a way to practice small ($1000-$10k), med ($100k), large ($1m) accounts. 7. Every timeframe is available (1min, 5min, 15min, 1hr, 1day) except 30min, 4Hr, Weekly and Monthly Con: 1. Minimal Barebone UI - Everything works on what it needs to do, however some trial and error are needed to navigate through different screens as there is not much help explaining how things work eg set up a trading journal, how to check trade history (currently on different areas and troublesome to switch in and out, how and where to add basic indicators, how to buy/sell, set stoploss takeprofit etc (which I hope future patches will add a screenshot tutorial at the start the game that will explain step by step) *fixed 2. As each round will generate a random chart, there is no help to tell the user that they are required to preselect/deselect the charts under esc> settings menu>instruments *fixed 3. Writing in the journal is clunky and doesnt flow well because currently you can only see this trade history in a tab outside the game (press esc>exit>review>journal history) I would prefer a snapshot of the chart, then fill in the journal underneath and a place to on the right side column to show trade history and journals *fixed 4. I have enough cash to buy the 100k upgrade but by doing this, I cannot practice scaling on small 10k accounts as there is no reset button or a set an amount when you do buy the rebirth upgrades. 5. I still dont know what A7 voucher does 6. Black Market options are interesting but not detailed, eg special blend coffee, it says delay sleep, does it mean skip sleep for 1 week or whole session when you buy it? Tutorial or help is required to explain I enjoyed trading in the game even though it took some time to figure what does what, how to buy sell. Buy this if you want to practice pattern trading. Time to put in 1000hrs. Cheers. Tips: 1. Fibo levels can be edited by pressing the gear icon ontop, tools can be deleted with close button or trash bin at the top row 2. Map the next candle to the mouse extra key for better quality of life of easier clicking 3. Measure everything using Fibo to find the correct 61.8% Discount level 4. Pairs that can be traded: XAUUSD, Major Crypto Pairs, AUDUSD, GBPUSD, EURUSD, USDJPY - make sure to deselect those pairs that you do not want to trade in 5. Leverages are different for crypto and forex pairs and cannot be changed. 6. Scale in and scale out buttons are swapped for long or short 7. You can do TP1, TP2 by using the scale out margin % eg scale out margin at 50% with 2 TP levels
让交易小白的我,练习了二十个小时后,每周翻三四倍。。。。这只是个游戏,这不止是个游戏
很不错,玩得很开心. 作者也在不断的优化更新当中,希望越来越好. 这是我第一次测评,我献出我的第一次.
游戏界面简洁,没有复杂的菜单,看着有一点粗糙,但内涵却十分专业,而且重要的它有市场轮廓指标(Market Picture/Market Profile),最重要的是它还能结合账户风险值和止损区间倒算出应该开多大的头寸,这两点甚至很多专业软件都做不到。 交易员用来训练盘感、挂单技术、系统交易和资金管理能力完全可以胜任。 每个交易者都希望拥有一个正期望的交易系统,《交易生涯》这个游戏可以帮到你!
Absolutely have to give the developers a huge 5-star review! I encountered a game crash-on-launch issue yesterday and posted about it in the Steam community. The developers replied in less than half an hour and gave me detailed instructions on how to collect the log files. After I sent them the logs, they quickly identified the problem and have been helping me work through it ever since. This level of responsiveness and responsibility is extremely rare among indie game developers. The game itself is also fantastic – easily the most realistic trading simulation I've ever played. It uses real historical market data, and the roguelike loop is incredibly addictive and challenging. An amazing game made by amazing developers – 100% worth supporting! Hope the game gets even better in the future!
