Default Demo Accounts

Did any of you use a demo account before trying it out for real?

Currently I'm using a demo account with ibfx.com learning a lot. I have to learn not to get carried away and to do a little research. I keep going with the "I think I'm lucky today" method. Which has only been succesful about 30% of the time lol.

I only use ibfx.com because my business professor recommends it and uses it.

hi reb!
Yes, I did use a demo account, with Kerford Investments, before going real. It's always advisable to do a demo trading before investing.

Does demo and real situation differs when you switch to the second one?

Demo accounts can certainly be beneficial but I always found that you will learn more about both your trading strategy and your emotions when you start trading with real money, even if it's just very small stakes.

In case you would like to evaluate conditions for conducting trading operations and draw conclusions as to your personal capabilities on the financial markets, please go ahead and open a free demo account.
Demo account is a good start for novices in the Forex market to try internet-trading and an opportunity for experienced traders to test their new strategies without risk to lose money.
Feel free to make yourself familiar with FOREX

Yes I just did demo up until now because I'm still a newbie. I really can't wait to go on live but I still have the problem losing on my demo account.

Share with me your experience? Did you succeed in live trading?
I`ve been trading with demo for a couple of months and think of shifting to a live one.
