Yes but that's a demo account

If that was a Live account then it would be a different matter


Why?

for a long list of reasons

different spread, slippage, poor fills, etc.

trust me

what you get in your demo will be nowhere near your real results

What sense do these results have in Demo if they are far from what would be real results?

Ok I'll give you benefit of doubt

Have you got a link to your live account that shows the same % gain

Also, how do you propose to copy the trades from demo to a live account. Manually?

Just to be clear you cannot copy autotrade demo to real. For obvious reason.
You can do it however with MT4 account.

I would like understand how much a demo and real account are true. I have a demo account opened in may 2015, deposit 5000 usd. I used lucky pound and Atlas trader. Now account is at 270%, obviously is very good but in january i will open a real account, with the same deposit. How much return can I expect? I think is impossibile the same return of demo account, right? Slippage, commission, ecc... how much impact on the account? Thanks

Same question I have. In demo, everything is running ok and it's convincing me to start a real account. But I'm afraid the results would vary due to slippage, spread, and other conditions.

You'll never have the same results because of the stated elements: difference in spread, slippage, time-delay while copying the trades, etc.
And don't forget the spread markup, with which the broker will charge you (for paying myfxbook). For example at Pepperstone the markup is around 0.8 pips for every pair.

But if you choose a good provider with a not-too-small pip-expectancy for each trade, who is not only trading during high spread-times (i.e. asian session scalper), then it should work. Can only tell if you try. :)

Guys, this is the biggest confusion even I have.

I have good experience in Demo except for some trades getting delayed in Demo as well. I spoke with a friend of mine who is in forex trading since long time. He told me that its obvious. I am optimistic about autotrade platform.

I am shocked no-one is ready to share their Live account experience on autotrade.
