IBFX changed their demo policy, where can I get an unlimited demo?

Hi guys, recently got an email from IBFX stating that they are changing their demo policy and demos will only last for 20 days.

" Due to the excess volume of demo accounts we are reinstating the Interbank FX Trader 4 demo lifecycle term of 20 days. This will help us maintain a stable demo trading environment. "

Is there anywhere else that I can get an unlimited demo? I have gotten accustomed to trading one account for a long period of time and it has helped me to learn how to trade. If there is another unlimited demo offered from another broker, can I change the server of my demo to point to that server?

thanks guys.

Oanda offers unlimited demo

and I noticed now to access FXCM live help you have to have an account number.. LOL

The people from interbank have changed their policy for the time being!

"Dear Demo Customer, Due to the overwhelming response we received from this announcement we are working on alternate solutions regarding the demo account lifecycle. We will not be making any changes to the demo accounts at this time.
As before, any demo account that has had no opening, closing or modifying of trades for 20 days or more will automatically expire however we will not be automatically retiring your demo accounts if they are active.
Thank you for your feedback. It is very valued and obviously influences our business decisions.

Best of luck with your trading,

The Interbank FX Team"


wuhoo!

my alpari demo expired back in mid may cause of a similar clause. i put on a long term trade - 1 mini lot long usd/cad. im down 165US, but up 5.61 on swap - and have had no probs since

Try http://www.metaquotes.net/downloads/ the home of MetaTrader...

The LP for the demo account is MIG (Swiss online Forex broker) and reported offers;

1. 2 pips spreads on six currency pairs (EURUSD, USDJPY, AUDUSD, EURGBP, EURCHF & CHFJPY).
2. 3 pips spreads on four currency pairs (GBPUSD, USDCHF, USDCAD & EURJPY).

Regards,
DD

i had an mig account, and it expired after a while.
I read on another thread that alpari accounts don't expire

An Alpari acct wil expire if not traded. Here's the text of the email:

Dear Users of MetaTrader 4: Alpari!

We inform you that your demo account is provided by Alpari Ltd. for free for an indefinite period (if you trade your demo account at least once every three months).

We offer competitive trading terms:

My acct was/is used strictly for charting. Not for trading.
Use it or lose it

That's right. Oanda and Alpari seem to be the best places to open demo accounts. Alpari's demo accounts only expire if no trades are placed for 3 months, I don't remember about Oanda but I think they have a similar policy.

With Oanda You'll have more currency pairs available, web-based platform, runs in GMT.

Alpari is MT4 based, not so many pairs (if You're trading the majors then it's not a problem). MT4, You can have as many indicators as You want (in case You're using any indicators). Runs in GMT +2.

Hope it helps!

I have had both alpari and fxdd demo accounts for about a year. As long as you place a trade now and then, they won't expire.

they have change their idea
