What is a demo trading account?

Flexiblefxtrade provides a Login Account that aims to duplicate as closely as possible the activity of ‘real' trading. This is so that you can get a feel for how various items and financial markets operate without risking any money, allowing you to explore and experiment safely.

When you create a Login Account with Flexiblefxtrade, you'll get immediate access to a demo version of our trading platforms, MT4 and TraderEvolution, as well as $5,000 in virtual cash to practice with.

In the demo, most of the live platform's features are available, however there are some key differences to be aware of (including but not limited to):

  • Trades made on the Login Account will not be affected by slippage, interest rate adjustments, or out-of-hours price changes.
  • Trades may be turned down if you don't have enough money to fund them, as they can on a real account.

This is by no means a complete list, therefore we recommend that you read the information on our website as well as the Customer Agreement to ensure that you are aware of the features of a live trading account.

Why use a Login Account?

Traders will frequently opt for a trading simulator, such as a Login Account, since it allows them to familiarize themselves with the platform, develop their strategy, and grow in confidence without putting any real money at risk.

Trading simulators aren't only for novices. Login Accounts are popular among experienced traders because they allow them to experiment with new strategies, tools, and concepts without risking real-world funds.

The term ‘paper trading' refers to Login Accounts, which are used to practice trading in live financial instruments. With a Flexiblefxtrade demo trading account, you’ll gain access to over 1,000s markets, including:

As well as a range of other markets including shares and bonds.

What is the point of a demo trading account and do you really need one?

The answer is always yes, in our opinion. If you're learning to trade, you'll need a demo platform on which to practice your forex fundamentals. Traders who are new to the forex market may use a demo platform to try out innovative trading strategies without risking real money, while coders with programming skills will utilize a demo trading account to test automated trading algorithms, also known as 'expert advisors.'

The benefits of using a Login Account

A Login Account is an excellent way to learn how to trade for free and without any financial risk. However, it can't take the place of your desire to acquire the traits that will make you a successful trader: perseverance, humility, and a cool head.

It helps you to appreciate the perils of leverage.

In general, new traders are intrigued by two things. The first is that, in comparison with other asset classes like stocks or commodities, the forex moves relatively little.

The Login Account should make it clear that leverage is a double-edged sword: you may generate a lot of money quickly, but you can also lose everything in a single trade.

It allows you to understand how the platform works

The free Login Account is essential to learn how to place orders, set up various sorts of technical analysis charts, and discover the many contract sizes, margin utilized based on leverage, and other elements.

It allows you to develop trading strategies

The most popular trading platform for retail traders is MetaTrader 4. The demo mode includes real-time quotes from all markets as well as a virtual portfolio to practice on. You can also analyze price action, chart data, support/resistance lines, currency pair relationships, how volatility varies depending on the market's hours and assets, and so on. You may also evaluate automated techniques and fine-tune your parameters with historical data.

How to create a Demo Trading account

1. Open the Login Account application. Enter your details and submit.

2. Enter your verification PIN to ensure it's you.

Tip: Check your email for the verification PIN.

3. Set your trading currency and select your starting balance.

4. Login Account created! Check your email for login details.

5. Start demo trading. You can use any of our platforms or trade using webtrader.globalprime.com

The drawbacks of using a Login Account

You will not acquire the healthy anxiety you'll need to be a success in trading.

Even if you made money with a Login Account, you won't necessarily be a skilled trader. When losses mean nothing in a controlled setting, your emotions around them and even earnings have little impact on your decisions. You must have practical experience in the real world to grasp and control the psychological aspect of trading.

You can become complacent or develop bad habits.

Login Accounts might give the impression that you have a lot of expertise. Traders find it difficult to master risk effectively with a Login Account. The problem with fake money is that it also encourages them to take more risks than they would with actual cash. This way of trading might lead to undesirable financial behaviors.

You may not realize how you will really act when you're trading with your own money.

Cut your losses quickly and let your profits run! This is true, but in most cases, it's difficult to put into action with a real account. It's not easy to discover ideal entry points when trading, but knowing when to get out is the most difficult part. When it comes to taking gains (which might lead to profits), it's a breeze, but when it comes time to take losses (which may lead to greater gains), things become more complicated.

What does ECN mean? Right Arrow

Electronic Communications Networks or ‘ECNs’ are off-exchange execution venues which allow market participants to trade with a range of counterparties anonymously. They are the main trading venues for OTC markets such as Foreign Exchange and Metals.

This basically means ECNs provide the technology and venue for price makers aka ‘liquidity providers’ to distribute their liquidity. Price takers (traders) can see these prices and execute trades against them. The ECN is therefore responsible for prices/quotes and the execution of orders.
