Naturally, the prospect of trading in a market as large and diverse as the Forex market can be slightly intimidating, especially for beginner traders. That’s why, before trading on the live markets, you should practise on a Forex demo account first.
A Forex demo account allows traders to practise trading using virtual currency in realistic market conditions. In other words, a Forex demo account allows you to practise trading without risking your own capital until you feel comfortable enough in your trading ability to make the transition to the live markets.
A Forex demo account is more than just a handy tool; for the modern trader, it is a necessity.
You don’t need to be a beginner to trade on a Forex demo account. In fact, many experienced traders also use a Forex demo account to practise and perfect new trading strategies without risking their own capital before implementing them in the live markets.
Besides the Forex market, a free demo account from Admirals also allows you to practise trading Contracts for Difference (CFDs) on stocks, indices, Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) and commodities such as gold, crude oil and coffee.
