The demo account is the master

The demo account is the master place for a beginner to acquire all basic fundamental information which is very supportive to continue a live account in a proper way. But practically most of the beginners don’t believe the importance of this trading place at all. In my trading career, I use all my trading strategies in demo trading to see the performance how it works.

Those who think demo trading does not have any value they learn the value of demo trading the hard way. That is by losing a decent amount of money. A Demo account is an important tool for a trader.

Couldn't agree more. Its all also about know where every fits within the puzzle comfort on the platform.

Demo accounts help a lot to make the trader professional. Such as how to do analysis, how to maintain money management, and risk management. It is possible to gain knowledge about all these issues from the demo account.

If it wasn’t for my demo account I would have never made it this far!

Which ones did you use? I can’t seem to settle on one….

That’s something that all traders have encountered. What to do? There are so many choices! I had used Pepperstone. Both good as per my requirements. Even you should first identify your trading style and then according to that go for brokers.

Thanks for replying mate. I am trying my hand at scalping….

Demo accounts work great for both new and professional traders. You can test as many strategies as you want on your demo account before risking your money.

However, demo traders lack emotion. So, you cannot learn everything in the demo account.

when looking for a broker we the traders, first of all, have to make sure which is regulated, actually the best broker always ensures the security of funds with a wide range of trading technologies.

demo account can surely make you the master of trading.

Demo trading should be done first to develop skills. Demo trading helps a lot in gaining experience.

demo is really important for all kinds of trader even professional , but i have seen most of us always ignore this trading place.

As a newbie i am already doing demo trading but I don’t know how much time I should spend on demo trading
And after a point I feel it to be boring also.

Demo is boring and that makes it unrealistic. A micro live account is best because the thought of losing real money keeps the attention

If you trade with the original money, the fear of losing that money is in the minds. And when it comes to demo trading, it seems that there is no problem even if you don't lose the original money. I can't talk to anyone else I shared my experience.

True, because emotions intervene only when actual monye is involved, thats why demo seems way too easy as compared to real account trading.

I wanted to point out that demo trading is less important because of which there is no loss or gain emotionally. But if that is the original money, then emotionally it can be a bit of a problem.

The demo account is the first tool used by a beginner to trade on live market using demo capitals and risk-free to understand how the live market works.
