MetaTrader Account Types

MetaTrader offers two main types of accounts for traders: Demo Accounts and Real Accounts.

• Demo Accounts:
• Allow traders to practice trading without risking real money.
• Provide the same functionalities as real accounts, making them ideal for testing strategies.
• Can be opened without any investment.
• No profits can be earned from a demo account.
• Real Accounts:
• Require a minimum deposit to start trading.
• Offer access to live market conditions and the potential for real profits.
• Different account types may be available, such as Standard, Pro, and Zero Spread accounts, depending on the broker.
