Demo account vs live account. Which one should you focus more on? Demo account trading is something that traders would skip only to learn it the hard way on how important it is to go into forex demo trading first before they trade with a forex live account.
Trading with a demo account is boring for a lot of traders because trading demo means that you won't earn any money. But trading demo is essential for you to potentially do well in forex live account trading.
I want to share with you the difference between a forex demo vs real account so that you know which one to focus more on throughout your forex trading career.
The truth is that you still need to be in forex demo trading even after you have started a forex live account. A demo trading account is needed for you to develop new forex trading strategies.

I've been trading for a year now and my reason was to make money fast and become rich and when this did not happen I inevitably gave up on trading. There are many so-called "mentors" who pretend that they want to help you and tell you that you can make money after just a 3 day course but they just want your money. Because of your vlogs I've learnt how to look at the markets with a realistic expectation as to how long it will take me to become a profitable trader. You helped me look at trading like a business and like any business there will be ups and downs but discipline, patience, consistency and hard work is key, and these are all characteristics which come from having a passion for what you are doing. Without these traits you are almost guaranteed never to succeed in any business, let alone forex. I look forward to learning more from you. Thank you Karen Foo!

Hello karen... I don't comment on any vedio on youtube but i really like you. You tell every thing real, yes there are also many good traders who post tutorial vedio but the difference is that you always tell the real things. I have lost almost $600 dollar yet. But last 2 month i didn't loss any money. But your advice gives me GOLD. Thank you so much. And i will let you know, when i will be a consistently profitable trader. - Sakib mustafa from BANGLADESH

Hi Karen, I trying to grow my account and I have a question, should my 1% risk always be with the current capital? Let say I am currently risking 1% of $10 and I won the trade, should the next trade be $10.10 since that is the new 1% of the current capital. As my account get bigger, $10 will no longer be 1% but will become smaller %. Should I risk $10 on every trade regardless of my current capital until the end of the month where I change my amount accordingly to the 1%. What is the best way of growing your account? Thank you.

I had no idea successful traders would still use a demo account, makes complete sense though. I also love that you brought up good investing is supposed to be boring.... very interesting concept I mean I wouldn’t want where I invest my money to be where I get an adrenaline rush from because I’d increase my chances of a risking lots and blowing my account... I’m still learning as much as I can before I go to a demo on TDameritrade with currencies (still new in the forex world), I’m just wondering where the fine line between liking the feeling of trading vs getting that thrill is... does that feeling of I like this a lot “calm down” eventually, and when do you know you need to take a step back ... that’s my big question lol

The demo account I try first before start my real live trading in Forex. Since the demo account is the best and useful factor to learn Forex trading practically. Without any cost you can trade in Forex demo account. Forex4you broker I select to use the demo account because they give almost all the real trading tools in their demo trading platforms. I practiced there for six months continuously and learn properly about Forex trading.

The best way to learn trading is actually trading,demo is crucial for beginers as they can feel the environment and how easy is to lose money on a market,u can have 20positive trades and blow up everythin in one bad,however if u spend few months on a demo and become positive on a demo u should move to real market and feel it..use low risk,and build consistency once u do that scale the risk and profits..at the end of a day,trading is highly speculative but u can become amazing speculator,if u use proper risk managment and always plan a trade,in case somethin goes wrong ur bad trades wont affect u too much..its a process and skill that wll be developed throu a year or two if u r trading and learning consistently,majority of fails on a market comes from gamblers that dont have knowledge about trading at all..honestly im amazed by the oportunity that demo even exist it can save u thousands and thousand in that begining of ur learning...thank u Karen on great video

My main focus is practicing on demo account and i have been for more than 6 months now. Whenever i practice i use money that i could afford and try to use as small leverage as possile. The hard part for me is knowing what indicators/oscilators to use and on what timeframe and how to read them to get confirmations when to enter or exit a trade. But by looking back at my trading journal then i always see what i should have done but the hard part is knowing what i should do whenever it's time to place a trade again. It wil take time but hopefully i will get there someday.
