You can paper trade on Axiom with a browser extension like MockApe. It adds simulated trading to axiom.trade, so your trades use a practice balance instead of real funds from your wallet.

What is Axiom?

Axiom (axiom.trade) is a browser-based trading terminal from Y Combinator’s Winter 2025 batch. It quickly became one of the most popular Solana trading platforms, reaching $100 million in revenue about four months after launch.

Most people use Axiom to trade meme coins, but it also offers perpetual futures trading through Hyperliquid.

Does Axiom have a demo account?

No. Axiom doesn’t have a demo account or a paper trading mode, so every buy and sell spends real funds from your wallet. To trade on Axiom without risking real money, you need a paper trading extension.

How do you paper trade on Axiom?

Add MockApe to a desktop browser that supports Chrome extensions.
Log in to axiom.trade and open a token. The MockApe panel only shows up on token pages, not on the Axiom home page.
Trade with the MockApe panel instead of Axiom’s own buy and sell buttons.
Check your trade history to see how each trade went.

Is it safe to paper trade on Axiom?

MockApe doesn’t connect to your wallet and can’t access your funds or private keys. Paper trades never happen on-chain.

Make sure you use the MockApe panel when you’re paper trading, though. Axiom’s own buy and sell buttons still place real trades.

Is paper trading on Axiom free?

Yes. Sign up for Axiom and install MockApe, and you can start paper trading for free.

How accurate is paper trading on Axiom?

MockApe uses live prices from Axiom, but fills, slippage and fees are estimates. Your results may not match a real trade exactly, especially on fast-moving launches where prices change quickly. Read more: Is paper trading realistic?
