Have more questions about our Demo Trading Account?

If you have any questions regarding our Demo trading account, we’ve got you covered! Feel free to explore our FAQ or reach out to our customer support team, and we’ll gladly provide the answers you need.

How Do Demo Trading Accounts Work?

A demo account is connected to a live trading platform so that traders can gain access to accurate, live market conditions and make trades as they would on live accounts. However, demo accounts come with simulated funds which traders can use instead of making deposits of real money, making demo trading entirely risk-free.

How to Get a Demo Trading Account?

If you’re interested in trying out our trading conditions, a demo trading account is perfect for you.

1.Sign up for an Alchemy Markets account for free.
2. Log in to your dashboard.
3. Click on “New Demo” to generate a new demo trading account.
4. Check your email for your login details.

Is a Demo Account the Same as a Live Account?

Demo accounts and live accounts are not the same. Though they both accommodate trading in live markets with complete access to platform tools and features, the key difference is that traders on demo accounts use simulated funds while traders on live accounts have to deposit real money before they can make trades.

Therefore, demo accounts are considered risk-free while live accounts are not. At the same time, profits accumulated in demo accounts cannot be converted into real money, while profits made in live trading are real and can be kept by the trader after commissions.

What Markets Can I Trade with a Demo Account?

Our demo accounts have access to all the same markets and price feeds a Classic, Premier and VIP account does. The only difference is that trading results from a Demo Account will not have any impact on your real finances. A demo account also does not have access to raw spreads, which is only available to VIP account holders on Alchemy Markets.

How Accurate are Demo Accounts?

Demo accounts are real in the sense that they grant traders access to live trading platforms so they can follow live market conditions. They are also designed to offer real-time price feeds and they provide the same functionalities and features traders would find with live accounts.

However, traders on our demo trading accounts should understand that simulated trades may not be subject to slippage, interest and dividend adjustments, margin calls due to insufficient funds, and other features. Therefore, traders should be aware of the full terms of our live accounts before opening one. You can find more information on our Customer Service Agreement at the footer of our website under Documents.

Can I Make Money Trading on a Demo Account?

No. Trades are executed with simulated funds on a demo account instead of real money. Therefore, any profits accumulated in a demo account are virtual and cannot be converted into real money.

Can I Test Out My EA Strategies on a Demo Account?

Absolutely. You can use Expert Advisors (EA) alongside technical analysis tools and trading signals on the MT4 or MT5 demo platform when you trade on a demo account with us. You can also run automated strategies through our own Alchemy Markets Virtual Private Server (VPS) 24/7.

Can I Switch to a Live Account From a Demo Account?

No, you cannot change a Demo Account into a live trading account.

How Can I Open and Set Up a Demo Account in MetaTrader 5?

First, log in and create a ‘New Demo’ account in your Alchemy Markets dashboard. Next, download the MT5 App from the dashboard and log in with your MT5 credentials.

What Documents Are Needed to Set up My Account?

You can open a demo account and a live account without any KYC verification. To make your first deposit or withdrawal, our KYC process will request the following documents:

Scan of Personal ID and Selfie
Proof of Address (Bank Statement, Credit Card Statement, Utility Bills, Tax Documents)
