Both live and demo accounts have the same capabilities in all Tradeview platforms.

With a demo account you trade with virtual cash, and subsequently you have no capital at risk.

Most importantly, the rates presented on the demo platform are exactly the same as on the live platform, so you will be able to test your strategies using actual rates.

Although the numbers are all the same, you should note following two differences between Demo and Live accounts.

1. No Liquidity concerns

Money pool or liquidity is the one very important aspect in investment markets.

All financial markets are subject to their market liquidity.

Simply if there is no enough liquidity for your order to be executed, your order will not be executed. This is why many traders are often bothered by slippages, order rejections etc.

And this is the only difference(technically) between Demo and Live accounts, that there is no liquidity in Demo trading platforms.

As in all your orders will be executed instantly without delays or slippages in Demo accounts.

This wouldn’t a huge problem for traders with smaller trading volumes such as 0.01 – 0.1 lots.

But in case you are looking to trade with larger volumes like more than 10 lots for example, then you will most likely see huge difference in profit/loss results between Demo and Live accounts.

Unless your broker is for institutional traders or PoP(Prime of Prime), then normal brokers like Tradeview cannot support too large trading volumes.

2. Psychological Stress

Practice and real thing are always different.

You might trade more riskier in Virtual Demo trading account though, you might hesitate when you trade with your real money.

In case you are using trading programs(such as Expert Advisers), then your emotion doesn’t matter.

If you are trading manually, you wouldn’t think you will earn the same profit in the live account later.

The differences of Demo and Live accounts are always the same in every broker.

You may want to remembers that Demo and Live tradings are two different things.
