Demo account functions to practice trading so do not consider profit on a demo account as real profit because later we have to trade on a real account and not necessarily the same results when we trade on a demo account

I think the demo account is good for technical analysis training, but for phsycology trading training it is not enough to have training in a real account, maybe using a micro account is better.

To practice it is certainly very good with a demo account, although it can be big profits on a demo not necessarily on a real account.
Because the psychologist factor is very large in our trading conditions.

if we treat profits on a demo account as in a real account then I'm sure your psychology will be better because it will not waste what has been learned including trading on a demo account.

True, psychologists can only be felt if it is real trading, this is a challenge to control the psychologist, if only profit on a demo account is just an illusion that is not necessarily appropriate when trading in real trading.

demo account is only an account to practice so loss or profit should not be too much of a concern but we still respect it, especially if we already profit in a demo account so that we don't be too sure we will be able to make profits on a real account without profit consistency.

demo account is indeed a special account used to practice and test trading systems so it is related to profit in my opinion just as a simulation so do not be associated with a real account because the results will not necessarily be the same.

profit on a demo account is a motivation that can be used as encouragement for traders, especially if the trader has managed to get a good system in a demo account then just switch to a real account and try the system that was created in the demo account.

we must consider the profit on the demo account as a bonus or as a motivation that can trigger us to try even harder in order to achieve a better target or at least the same target on a real account later.

practicing on a demo account is the same as if we practiced without results but in fact the result is not profit but skill, by learning in a demo account we can get good trading skills and will generate real profits later on in a real account.

Demo accounts will not teach trading skills as well as real accounts. But the correct foundation is built from there. I just practiced on a demo account for almost a year. Are you bored and bored? Yes clear. Because demo account trading has no taste at all. I only remember when I first learned how to trade my emotions are very chaotic. I'm sure most traders experience the same thing, where it is difficult to sleep for several weeks or even months.

I also experienced this. Fortunately, trading for a long time using a demo account can erode most of these emotional feelings. So when trading using a real account I do not get carried away with emotion like most beginners. Besides that, the demo account also ensures that the analysis technique we use is completely feasible for stepping into a real account.

In a real account also requires a process that is not short. Training psychologically while sharpening the technical trading used is not easy and short. Therefore for beginners it's good to use a bonus account or a cent account. So get used to it first.

Profit on a demo account is easy because there is no burden and the capital is large.
In contrast to Real who have an emotional burden, for fear of loss, etc.
Don't make profit on the demo account as the main reference when you start trading, because real accounts are much more difficult.

Demo account is just a trial, profit in a demo account is of no benefit, real market conditions are far from experstation, it is very difficult to get profit and never think that forex is easy

Demo accounts are only a practice and some consider it to be a game, so if you make a profit on a demo account don't think you will get the same profit easily on a real account.

profit on a demo account is the same as we learn tarding on a demo account, once we feel we can then profit a demo account that cannot be withdrawn even if it will also make our psychology happy so that it will really be able to develop.
