• $20,000 of virtual funds
• The same markets as a live account
• 30:1 default leverage
• Real-time live prices and charts

The primary difference is that no capital is at risk when you trade on a demo account. You’ll have access to all the features, but with no real profit or loss.

Please note, your MT4 demo account will expire after 12 weeks. You can upgrade to a live account at any time using the My Account section of the platform.
