Currency Trading Simulation

February 9th, 2008 · 1 Comment

You can get Currency trading simulation program to test your trading strategies before going on a live account. Annoyingly many simulations or demo accounts expire within a few weeks. This can be very irritating when you want to trade strategies that need more time.

The good news is I have found two brokers that offer a demo account that has no expiry date. These brokers are:

Northfinance

Oanda

I have used the same North Finance demo account for over a year now and it has been very helpful for testing my strategies in the short to medium term.

NorthFinance uses the popular MetaTrader 4 platform, whilst Oanda has it’s own web platform.

As always, it is a good idea to test your strategies and expert advisors on a demo account for a few months before trading them on a live account.
