Live DOT market data, simulated capital, and the fees, spread and price impact a real order would pay — the honest way into Polkadot before a wallet is involved.
Polkadot is a proof-of-stake network of interoperable parachains sharing one security layer, with an inflationary issuance model that adjusts according to how much of the supply is staked.
DOT is liquid on major venues with moderate volatility for an altcoin, and its supply dynamics — staking participation and unlock schedules — matter more to its flow than short-term chart structure.
Use DOT to practise holding through a scheduled supply event and measuring the cost of carry on a simulated position.
DexLadder does not fill at the mid price. An order is charged the spread, the venue fee and the price impact your own size causes — on pool trades that impact is computed from the constant-product and concentrated-liquidity maths rather than approximated by a flat percentage. That is the difference between a paper result you can trust and one that quietly flatters you. The full model is written up in the methodology.
Work out the position from your stop distance rather than your balance — the position size calculator does it in one step — and if you are using leverage, check the liquidation distance against the ordinary daily range of DOT before choosing a multiplier.

Yes. Prices come from live market feeds; only the money is simulated.
Yes — venue fees, the spread and the price impact your order size causes. An environment that skips those overstates every strategy you test.
