How long one should use demo?

[SaadBinToha]

Research is an inevitable part of trading and I suggest not a single trade to be opened without proper market research.

I'm new to trading and will soon start trading on a demo account to improve my skills. Any suggestions from you traders would be appreciated

One should use demo as long as one is comfortable with the platform.

It depends on an individual trader how long he/ she wants to use it. Once a trader is confident enough and learns each perspective of trading then he/she can switch to a live account. But there is no specific fixed time for how long a demo account should be used.

The purpose of trading on a demo account is to help traders get familiarised with the forex market and hone their trading skills. So, imo, if you have a proven record that your strategy is giving consistent results, then you can move to live trading.

I agree, you can't go wrong with demo.

A Forex demo account should be used until you are consistently profitable and confident with your strategy. This may take several weeks or months. It helps you practice trading, understand market movements, and build discipline without risk. Move to real trading only when your performance is steady and controlled.
