Disclaimer

The trading results on the demo accounts do not include commissions, exchange fees, and N.F.Fees that you are going to get charged on your real account.

It would be best to consider that certain fills you would get on a "demo" account might not reflect the same result on live market action.

Accounts use hypothetical money and don't have the emotional impacts of real money. This demo can introduce people to the platform; it cannot mimic trading results in a live trading environment.
