What you actually do

MarketSim teaches financial intuition through action. Each system is introduced gradually, with real consequences and visible feedback.

📘

Learn by Doing

Short readings appear exactly when you need them. Concepts are reinforced through immediate application.

🏭

Run a Business

Set prices, manage capacity, respond to demand shifts, and deal with unexpected operational constraints.

📈

Invest in Markets

Allocate capital across simulated stocks with volatility, cycles, and compounding effects over time.

Progress & XP

Your progress reflects understanding, not completion. Unlock complexity as your intuition improves.

Business isn’t just profit

Real businesses operate under constraints. MarketSim models tradeoffs between growth, stability, and risk.

Pricing & Demand

Increase prices to improve margins, but risk losing demand and long-term trust.

Capacity & Staff

Hiring increases output but raises fixed costs and operational complexity.

External Events

Supplier delays, demand spikes, and market shocks force adaptive decision-making.

Markets behave over time

Investing is introduced as a system of probabilities, cycles, and long-term outcomes—not instant wins.

Learn without exams

Quizzes reinforce understanding, not memorisation. Wrong answers reveal why—not just what.

If revenue increases but profit falls, what likely changed?

Costs increased Demand collapsed Stock price dropped
