I'm trying to establish my investing strategies and to do that I'm using the kaching application on facebook, it's a stock market simulation.

I was wondering if anyone uses any other stock market simulations?
The ones I know of are:
vse.marketwatch.com
updown.com
kaching.com (also through facebook)
thinkorswim.com (paper money account/simulation)

Does anyone use these, use any others, and which do you think are most realistic?

Thank you!

I started a thread like this awhile back...be prepared for some constructive criticism.

I picked Investopedia, but someone also mentioned think or swim. I have no opinion on which is better. Good luck.

optionshouse has one with $50k imaginary money to play with. I use them because I have a real account and the imaginary one and can switch back and forth by clicking a button.

Same with Thinkorswim, paper money is much easier to spend, but don't ask them to transfer your paper gains into your 'real money' acct. ... They won't do that .
