What do you imply with virtual trading and practice trading?
I guess virtual trading when you open your account and do demo trades. Practice trading is when you trade with your real money. If I understood you correct, you can practice with demo trades and learn to get entry, exit price, and price actions but demo trades never help you to practice your emotional control. Emotion is important and you can not trade successfully if you can not control your emotions and orders.
Yes, that's it and you're right. It's the demo for those platforms that allows their users to practice trading which he's telling. This is quite popular these days for those who are starting out and want to learn how the market works. It's a very simple feature yet it's very much effective for those who want to try it without having any investment or real cash to be affected as you do your trade. Virtual money = play money. I used to do this before when my friend also introduced me but it's for the stocks and searching for crypto if there are any, as result, there are really many of them. It doesn't matter if you are too emotional or not but you just have to learn the basics and the wave of the market through that demo account.
