Practice Demo versus Live Account

The xauusd practice demo xauusd account only difference to the live xauusd account is the deposit, with a demo xauusd account a xauusd trader cannot deposit or withdraw money but with the real xauusd account a xauusd trader can deposit and withdraw money and all the trades will be transacted using real money and profits can be withdrawn and losses will be deducted from the deposited amount.

Traders should use this demo practice trading account to test out their xauusd strategy and practice xauusd until such a time that they can trade the xauusd market profitably. Then when they learn how to make a profit on their demo practice xauusd trading account then they can open a live xauusd account and start trading the real gold market.

Once a beginner xauusd trader registers for the free demo xauusd account the next step is to learn the xauusd trading platform as well as learn xauusd trading systems and xauusd strategies which will be used to generate xauusd signals for xauusd. The trader will then test these xauusd strategies on the XAUUSD Trading demo account that they will have opened to test if these trading strategies are profitable. Once the xauusd strategies are profitable on the xauusd demo account and a xauusd trader starts to make consistent profits on their XAUUSD Trading practice demo xauusd account then they can consider opening a real gold trading account.
