The National Stock Exchange<\/a> (NSE) will conduct mock trading sessions across its capital, commodity and currency derivatives segments on Saturday, 30 August, the bourse said in a release.<\/p>\n

What is a mock trading session?<\/p>\n

A mock trading session is a simulated market<\/a> exercise organised by the NSE to replicate live trading conditions without any financial risk. While the sessions mimic real-time activity, all trades and settlements are virtual, ensuring that participants face no fund pay-in or payout.<\/p>\n

Such sessions allow brokers, traders, and market intermediaries to familiarise themselves with the platform and processes, test new products, software upgrades or system changes, and run stress and contingency drills.<\/p>\n

They also enable the exchange to evaluate whether its systems can handle high volumes, stress situations, and regulatory requirements, ensuring the resilience and reliability of live market operations.<\/p>\n
