Demo account: how to open

A demo account is a trial version of a live trading account. Using a demo account, a beginner can practice forex trading risk-free.

How to open a demo account?

Before opening a live trading account, we strongly recommend you to get started on Forex with a training account, or demo account.

Indeed, it is a perfect way to explore a trading platform and learn how to carry out trades because a demo account bears the same features as a live account. The main difference between them is that a demo account is “funded” with simulated money, so all profits and losses are fictitious.

Apart from newcomers, a demo account is helpful for traders with forex skills as it enables traders to experiment with unfamiliar financial products and trading strategies.

Advantages of trading on a demo account:

You will practice skills of forex trading;
You will learn how to analyze Forex;
You will test and streamline your trading strategy in a virtual forex environment without risking your money;
You will develop your own system of risk management;
You will get to know the ins and outs of a MetaTrader.
