Demo is not the reality of how trading is or what it looks like. You can do demo trading, but believe me, when you enter live trading, you will feel the heat of it all and the difference between a demo account and a live account. This is why, after trading with a demo, it is good not to rush in all to trade with a huge amount, you just have to start with the little affordable amount you can be able to lose because demo and live trading are not the same.



Yeah, Demo will make you think trading is about strategy but live trading will show you what trading is all about.
In demo you have unlimited money to recover, no pain when you lose and no greed when you win. Then in Live trading you become scared to lose, you become greedy to recover and you learn that protecting money is more important than making money. Demo only teaches you how the market moves but only a small live account will teach you how you move.

it is not advisable for beginner traders to move straight to trading on the live market because during this phase there are still a lot to learn especially on trading psychology and market development. The reason why people had a lot of rough moments in trading as beginners is because they assumed that the knowledge they had was enough. Making use of a demo account makes you explore without actually incurring any loss because you aren't using real money to trade. Using this helps you get better but it's a gradual process.

I don't think it is very important to use a demo account for trading, because there is no emotion involved in using a demo account and especially no risk involved. And without risk, a person will never learn anything good from a trading platform, because whenever a person takes a risk, he gives importance to that matter. However, in my opinion, it is important for everyone to use a real trading platform and it is better to trade there with a very small amount of money, because when a trader starts trading with a very small amount of money, he can learn something good from there because there his risk-taking skills will be developed and emotions will be developed.

Then in Live trading you become scared to lose, you become greedy to recover and you learn that protecting money is more important than making money. Demo only teaches you how the market moves but only a small live account will teach you how you move.

The point of demo accounts are for we to use them like real accounts but for testing and not to think of them as worth our time. Everything that you'll do with a real account, you should first practice it with a demo account to prevent losing real money. You're not supposed to think like demo aren't real account or you'll not get the experience that demo accounts were supposed to teach you. You should be angry when you lose in demo account because that's telling you that your strategys didn't work therefore you're supposed to go back and work on a better strategy to help you make profits when you trade again. If your strategy gives you profits with the demo then you should be happy like you won because it means your strategy is working fine then you can now go live and make real money'. Demo account's shouldn't be looked down on because it has helped many new traders to learn and practice their strategy and they have been using it to become good at trading. Ask a professional trader and they'll recommend trading first with a demo account.

Demo account is a very good start for a new trader in the crypto market. It gives you a starting point for practicing the necessary basics needed as a trader.

One thing for sure is that demo trading can not be compared to live account trading. Here, every action taken counts to either the increase of your trading capital or reduction of it. Practicing is good as it will give lights on some paths to watch out for, but it's not same thing as actually trading with a fully funded account. The emotional control are on different levels.
Good point, the emotional control aren't the same, some beginners assume that just because they are making progress with their trades on demo account means that they are also going to get the same results from the live market, well, there might be a possibility In that but it is not certain. The dynamics of the live market is different from that of the demo accounts beginners trade with. It is important not to forget about the relevance of starting with a demo account, getting too confident and assuming you can apply the same approach might lead to losses.

Starting with a demo account may increase trading knowledge. Someone will get a good idea of ​​how to trade, but I cannot say for sure that someone will be able to maintain his emotions while trading with that demo account. The feeling you get when trading with real money will not be the same as when you trade with demo. Even if I use more leverage in demo, my real feeling will not act because my fear of losing does not work there.

To learn, a trader should definitely start with real money with a little risk. If someone thinks that he can learn everything properly with demo, that is his personal matter, but in my case, I think that where there is no real money, the fear of losing does not work, which is why it will be difficult to get real experience.

It is important not to forget about the relevance of starting with a demo account, getting too confident and assuming you can apply the same approach might lead to losses.

What I can not agree with you less is if you said that in demo traders do not care about emotions and they don't care about how much they will lose since it is not real money but trust me what they are trading on demo is live market I mean what is actually happening live in the world that is why if any trader is able to discipline himself or herself and draft out a strategy that always give them profit in the demo, they can surely replicate it when they handle live account and I don't need physician to educate me on this because this is for sure.

The reason why some people will make profit on demo with a particular strategy and make loss with that same strategy in live account is because they have instill the mentality that demo is different from live and this will also make them to believe the strategy doesn't work in live account but that is totally wrong, if you are not patient and if you don't journal you will keep switching strategy thinking that is the problem without knowing the problem is yourself.

I do wonder if some newbies have free money to give to other traders, it's not advisable to trade on with a live account. A demo account is what you need to use to understand trading. I f you use a live account to trade, you are going to make losses and the pain in trading and making losses is going to discouraged you. This is why demo account is helpful and you don't make any emotions about it.

I think the trading school are to be blame for not telling newbies about these things. Some of them lose all their money chasing pump and dump coins and after they have loss all their money, they blame the market that trading is hard.

In literally any case, a person emotions play an important role. We do not call a person without emotions a healthy and normal person. Some people advise using demo to learn trading but this only gives a beginner a basic idea about trading, this method does not teach him trading. To learn trading, you have to apply your emotions and your own funds and your analysis. With the combination of each, you will become a good trader.

Learning trading is not easy or making money from this platform is not easy. As you said, if you do not have the fear of losing in trading, it will not be easy to gain real experience. You cannot focus on market analysis properly if you do not have the fear of losing capital.

As a beginner in trading I'll strongly advise you to start with a demo account for your own good... The way trading gives money is also how it takes money even faster than it gives... A demo account will enable you build up yourself and prepare you for the challenges ahead so that when you start trading a real account, you'll start applying what you've practiced from the demo...
It's best to use demo as a beginner to avoid losing all your money in the process so that when you've gotten the knowledge you can start using your capital rather than blowing it all as a beginner...

I remember when I learned how to trade, I did not use demo account.

Demo account was not even on most crypto exchanges at the time. I was able to use $1 on most exchanges except Binance that requires $10 for spot trading, but all the money can not just be list at once.

I used $0.25 on Binance futures at the time.,

Demo or no demo, trading is very risky. There is high chance the trader will start to lose when he is using money to trade. In demo, no emotions. When the newbies start using real account, emotions will start.

There is a big difference between someone who uses demo account, and someone who uses real money to learn trading, the trader who uses real money to trade is the one with real trading experience and will master trading faster than the use of demo account. It is important to know that if you eventually see yourself doing well using demo account, don't think that you have become a pro trader untill you begin to trade with real money. Making huge money from trading is not as easy as some persons think , it is associated with very high risk which means beginners should approach trading with caution.

Yes, I agree with you that those who use demo accounts cannot really learn much about real trading. Demo accounts are virtual money, until a trader trades with real money, he will not understand what trading is and how it is possible. I am not a trader, but I also tried to learn, but I found investing easier than trading. That is why I prefer investing. What I mean is that if someone thinks he is a skilled trader by using demo, he will be completely wrong, so until a trader trades with real money, it is better not to think of himself as a skilled trader.

One important use of a demo account is to understand how the structure of the market is and how to know your way around it, although they have different dynamics, this is something that a lot of people tend to neglect, just because you are having good results from the demo account you're running doesn't mean that you can achieve the same result with the live market using the same strategy, it only helps you to understand the market.

You are right. Trading is not gambling there is a process to it.
Starting with a demo account helps you to understands how the market behaves without the pressure of losing your own money. That is where you make mistakes, learn and correct yourself.  If you jump into a real account as a beginner without practice, you will likely blow your account. The patience you show on demo now will save you later. That is why it is good/ advisable as a beginner to use demo account to practice.

When the trading is live, they will take it more seriously because that way you will be able to take note of their mistakes. After making use of a demo account, those who don't really want to go on a live trade can also make use of a demo account, at least to start with, because that way you will be able to learn more also. So whether you make use of a demo account or go live, the most important thing is that you are learning, because when you learn from demo you can also go live.

Just that, when it comes to trading, it is not something you can rush, so we should understand that you will have to take your time to learn so that mistakes can be avoided, because there is a lot of risk that comes with trading, too much money loss should be avoided.

Demo will not get your that Payout.

It's just an interface created to enable newbies practice the market and it's not good to spend long time trading demo if you are really serious about trading.

With demo accounts you've got no emotion, no self control just you clicking a buy and sell button and telling yourself that it's fine to risk.live accounts gives you that consciousness which would make you think more than twice before going into a setup and when you win, you get paid for your ability to conquer the market.
If you've gotten to that stage where your setups looks special to you and they have the ability to tell you what your future setups could result to, then you will get those emotions even in trading demo.

With the experience I have, I risk on demo what I will risk on a normal line account, I picture it as a live account, it's not the risk that give that emotional feeling it's the set up, a stage where every set up matters to you, you don't care about the risk, the goal at that point is what plan what setup can make you profitable on a long term run, and if you're set up fails even in that demo account it will pain you just limit will on a real account because you know deep down your not yet profitable and no way for live account.

For beginners it is very important to use demo account for a start, it will guide them on how to go about the trading properly and to also build their confidence in trading to avoid losing money in trading while trading with your real money after you have learned. If you are use demo account to learn, you will know how to trade more than using signals and following up with so many books and tutorials from influencers. If you learn from influencers, you will definitely learn a lot, but using demo account will guide more to have confidence when you start trading with your money because you will have the experience to trade properly without fear.

Trading is fine when you are trading on live account, for instance when you are trading and you have around 30$-50 to can start practicing with that amount than using demo. Do not get it twisted, trading using demo is good but what you must know is that Demo do not really help people because they both have different actions and activities. Let say when you trading on demo it's easier to build your account and you may get enough profits because no competitor, but if you enter live market the action changes and if you do not know how to the control the market you easily emptied your account due how volatile the live market could be.
