Interbank FX Demo problems?

Does anyone else have problems with InterbankFx demo account forcing you to have a invalid account. I had one last night again and that's about 4 in the last 2 months.
The only way I have been able to fix it is to open a new account. Thank goodness its easy to do in MT4.
It's just a pain in the rump when your're in the middle of a trade that has been in play for 6 or 7 days and your're trying to figure rules and ways of exiting or even the possiblilty of another trade.

So has anyone else come accross this or is it just me?

I have had this problem as well with their demo platform. It sucks when you want to test out a long term strategy and you have to keep resetting. I believe FXDD has the same MT4 demo platform with does not expire.

Good Luck!

I think these accounts just expire after a month... I agree, it's frustrating if you are trying longer time frames but there is not much we can do about it. Other than finding demo feed that doesn't expire. Any ideas?

Keep track of your balance and trades using the history feature. then when it expires just open a new account with the ending balance of the expired account.

You can choose your opening balance - just type it into the drop down box that has the different ammounts listed in it.

hope this helps.

Thanks everyone for the tips.

I wish it was on 1 month reset, but right now my last reset was on 5/24 then 5/3 before that. Maybe its on a 3 week rotation .

May have too try FXDD out if it keeps it up.

lonespruce: Great advice. If I'm lucky to have it freeze up while MT4 is open I can get the info written down and choose the starting balance to reflect it. Its just a nusiance if it locks out on the opening of MT4 and I don't have the balance written down or any open trades.

At least this was at the end of a great run and not on a bad one.

Same happened to me last week JJ.

My InterbankFX demo account started on the 19th of last month and expired on the 9th.
Mucked up a real trade I was in through Gain Capital too. :

Wasn't expecting that.

Just to let you guys know StrategyBuilderFX MT4 never expires as long as your activate using it. I’ve had 4 demo's running my EA’s for over 3 months now and still going strong
