demo accounts are good for alot of things, i hardly can remember how many demo accounts i have used with hotforex and still using actually.
- demo can be used for practice and learning the interface and basic functions
- demo can be used for back testing strategies
- demo can be used for testing EAs
- demo can be used to trade trades that are riskier to be done on live just to learn the outcome

and honestly many more. and the fun part is ITS FREE

Most of the importance of demos are mentioned here but one thing I believe we can learn from the importance of demo accounts is taking demo trading as serious as possible ,we should forget the fact that it is the demo money and nothing happens if you lose rather we should treat demos as a live account and the virtual money on it as real money. This way we get to properly discipline ourselves.

Demo account is very important for new trader like me. But when you use demo account, there's one missing important factor trading when you use live account, it's a fear factor.

Demo account like simulations account for us to be able to train skills without the risk properly and therefore, we need to utilize a demo account with either. In the demo accounts we can test trading strategies and we can build a trading plan. And the most important thing we can practice comfortably in a demo account so that will make us be better prepared to trade real account

Make sure your demo account is unlimited, cuz all your trading tests and valuable trading history will be erased in case demo expires ( if you don't trade 3-4 months there)
Thats why I use unlimited demo from hotforex for more than 3 years, can look up my old trades and trading experiments, very useful if you are serious trader

I think if demo account used with seriousness when practice with involved and implemented risk management and learn system trading with test strategy it will really giving lesson later if already on real account

In Fx trading, demo account is mainly considered as a master place to acquire all basic fundamental knowledge which is very supportive to continue a live account in a proper way. But practically we the traders in particularly the newcomers don’t believe the importance of this trading place at all. In my trading career, after passing a long time, I am still dependable on demo trading. I use all my trading techniques in my demo trading first of all to see the performance how it works. It helps me always to be a sincere trader when live trading.

Yes, of course, you need to take demo seriously, if you really wanna learn the Live trading properly. Many traders don't take Demo Seriously and then complains about losing and it is not good.

Trading in a demo account benefits both beginners and experienced traders. For those who are new to trading, demo trading is the best way to start and learn how to trade. They can experience live trading environment with virtual investment, refine their trading skills, test their trading strategies. Whereas experienced traders can build, test their trading strategies in a demo account before applying in live trading. It is the best way to learn trading, gain confidence and test trading strategies.
