American innovators Kaden Beckstead and Justin Hendrickson have developed an innovative new stock trading app that aims to harness the power of gamification to help people begin their learning journey towards being able to take advantage of the stock market.
The 'StockMotion' app begins by taking users through a questionnaire in order to understand their priorities and risk tolerance, after which it deploys a special curriculum to help them get their basics sorted, ranging from economic principles to definitions of different investment vehicles.
Inspired by the wildly popular 'Duolingo' language learning app, the 'StockMotion' app aims to use short lessons and a gamified format to keep its users hooked, making this an excellent option for people who don't have a strong financial grounding but would like to change that.
