I found this useful link for TradingView users. I have started to use TradingView paper trading account for testing. Useful because it could be a Catch22 situation. You don’t know which broker to use to open a demo account but at the same time you don’t know which charting package you want to use. Presumably, for newbies, the simpler the better.
I first used TradingView because of my cryptocurrency activity and my chosen information source Coingecko has TradingView embedded on their website. I found the interface very intuitive so moved on to using their free charts, then subscribed last month to their Pro service.
