Why trade in demo not feel any risk??

[Todor]

Personally, I just avoid trading during the holidays because the market is so uncertain.

It has always be so uncertain.

 

[Fritz Fabiano]

No emotional commitment and no real consequences. That is why, no risk feels in demo trading.

High five. I wouldn’t do that either.

Trading using a demo account does not require real capital, and when there is no real capital involved, there is also no risk or emotions involved in it.

When trading using a demo account, the trader doesn't even invest in it. The demo account provides fake capital for the trader to use.

i also learned in demo. You feel safety when you know that you won't lose your money. It is very helpful for newbies. If there was no demo version, i think i whould have never begin trading with real money

True. I always liken demo training to training wheels when learning how to ride a bike. They are necessary and make it safer, but sooner or later they have to come off.

Demo trading is not risky because you'll not lose real money if you make losses due to wrong decisions.

Exactly, In demo trading no real money is in risk, demo accounts are only meant to get aware of the trading conditions and platforms before making any live trade.

Trading in demo does not have any risks because there is no real capital involved, and due to lack of risk, the emotions involved during demo trading does not have much impact compared to live trading.

Demo account is for practice and the plus point is we do not have to trade using our own real money. That's why it's not risky.

Simply you can tell that there is no real money involved while trading so your mindset is telling you that you are not losing any money

To answer your question. Take your money which you have right now in the pocket, rip them apart and check how you fell... Meanwhile I'll make for Ya Demo with 3 million USD! How do you feel millionaire?

 

[e_abrams]

I am not sure what tearing up one's cash has to do with anything?

 

[Variss]

nothing to lose when trading demo, no attached emotion

 

[e_abrams]

I think we all know that by now, though some people underestimate the importance of all that.

 

[JimBarryman]

Most of the trader who learn to trade in demo account will never feel any risk.
How come??
And what is the effect of this?

Because it is fake money, and if you lose it then it has no financial impact on you. When real money is involved, then you over think things and can make rash decisions.

 

[Gerouze]

demo isn't real money, demo traders do not have anything to lose

 

[Glossy]

Trading on a demo account makes you believe in yourself.
And then deposit real money.

 

[e_abrams]

That's a pretty accurate description, I agree, haha.
Sometimes that belief is not entirely justified, unfortunately.

 

[Credcy]

I guess you can say that you knew the real value being used in demo trading.

 

[Glossy]

Hmmm ....
Real value?
On a demo account?
