I was in the "let's see what happens" part of my trading, as a way of learning what not to do. I WAS using a platform (Plus500) which by default gave way too high trade sizes and too narrow S/L and T/P. I figure it's a way of milking suckers who put ...

Every time I've traded on a demo account without stop/loss I've blown the account. Trading with stop/loss, yes you'll lose something, but not everything, you've got a (reduced) position that you can recover from. Let's say you like prostitutes (I ...

If there ever was a viable robot that could consistently make profit, Forex would be over. Brokers would wind up business or significantly increase spreads/reduce leverage to protect profits. People would try to ban them. These things haven't ...

Are the leverage changes only on U.S. accounts? I haven't noticed any issues on my demo account in the past week. In fact it's been a pretty good week since I started it several days ago. Maybe you should all come over the pond and enjoy FCA ...

If I'm not feeling it, if I'm feeling down, I don't trade. No, scratch that, I shouldn't be. When my mind isn't in the right place, I have made bad decisions, got more stressed out and made myself feel worse. I did stupid trades without S/L because ...

Olly, am interested and am willing to give it a try on demo. Always looking for extra insight.

Market movements are as a result of human behaviour, so it can take a human mind to crack it. You can have all the indicators and fancy software you want, but you still need a human mind to use them to your advantage. If you know the long term ...

I had a phone call from a guy at OANDA yesterday after I opened my demo account. We had a chat about what I was looking for, my experience (I was honest, I have very little) and he told me about things I can look at to help me. Even though it's only ...

Trading without a stop/loss is the trader's equivalent of Russian Roulette. You get lucky, you live another day, you get unlucky and you get wiped out. Don't do it outside of demo.

Yeah, I was only looking for someone reputable for a demo as it'll give me an indication what they're really like if I ever use real money.

I've had a demo account with Plus500 for several months now to experiment with now and then. You get plenty of Forex/CFD instruments to choose from, a balance of £20,000 to play with which resets if you mess up so as a learning tool, it's pretty ...

Got my demo account now and put my first trade on... I've been dabbling a demo account for a while with a Plus500 app, how long did it take for you to no longer feel like a noob?

Been reading stuff which suggests EUR/JPY is a good thing to buy today, so I'm giving it a go

I was looking at FxPro for a demo account, glad I gave them a miss!
- FiveK replied Nov 21, 2016
I'm considering giving a demo account with OANDA a go as if I want to go Live they can accept small deposits (which is all I have). Been reading up and looks like FXCM is one to avoid.

Stupid noob question - can I use this on MT5 yet?
- FiveK replied Nov 15, 2016
I've been trying to download MT4 from their website. It looks like you can select it, but the downloaded client is MT5!

Sorry, noob here. 1) Ghostbiker's downloadable files - what do they do and how can I use them on a demo account? 2) Are they still viable post-US election or has the game changed? Hoping this can be a good education piece for me.

Hello everyone! I just joined the forum as I've been learning how to trade with a practice account, tried a couple of education apps and I accept there is a long way to go to become a successful trader; I realised one thing I was missing was talking ...
