Live UNI market data, simulated capital, and the fees, spread and price impact a real order would pay — the honest way into Uniswap before a wallet is involved.
UNI is the governance token of Uniswap, the largest decentralised exchange protocol and the origin of both the constant-product AMM and concentrated liquidity.
UNI trades as a proxy for DEX volume and DeFi governance expectations. It is liquid on both centralised books and its own pools, which makes it one of the few assets where you can directly compare the two execution venues.
Trade the same simulated size on a book and in a pool and compare the all-in cost — this is the single most useful exercise in DeFi execution.
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 UNI before choosing a multiplier.
Yes. DexLadder needs no signup, no email and no wallet connection — the paper balance and trade history stay in your own browser.
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.
