How to fund real

Beginner Questions
1

Deas he to add funds to real account

2

you can do this with any demo in my opinion
just get on chat with the broker and open a demo account (Doesn’t matter what amount) and ask them to add or remove funds as needed, they will usually do it in a matter of seconds

Thanks so much Martin! Which broker would you recommend?

hehe
Mate, @billyforex1 You’re Welcome but this question…

is like asking, which car should i buy LOL

ok, this is what i recommend…

COPY AND PASTE THIS QUESTION into the search bar at the top and do your research.

if you , however want to know who my broker is… I"m Pepperstone and YES i’m happy with them
but… that does IN NOW WAY mean that you should go for this broker,
you can consider them, but you should do your research, but then again, they may not even be available to you.

research it
have a good one

New to it all but I appreciate all that you’ve said! I will look into it more

i completely understand mate, its all good
here are a few survival tips for forex and more specifically for this site

  • Firstly… My posts are VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY LONG, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED :stuck_out_tongue:
    in saying that, my intentions are good

  • Secondly, if you ask me a question and i reply with a very very very long post, do not reply with TLDR,
    before asking decide if you want to hear the answer or not.

Now , the comedy aside hehe

Seriously though

  • Take Forex Seriously, ok i’ts not a game, and if you treat it as such it will … well (i can’t say it here hehe)
    i can only say this
    there will be a lot of pain
    LOTS AND LOTS OF PAIN
    forex will follow you until your insides are out and your outsides are in :stuck_out_tongue:
    YOU INTRAILS WILL BE YOUR EXTRAILS
    forex will rip…alehwaahhehheaaa… PAIN :stuck_out_tongue:
    here’s a clip of what i’m talking about (Taken from the movie A KNIGHTS TALE)
    YouTube

    so take forex seriously

  • Take Demo’s Seriously

  • go through the babypips school

  • if you have a question BEFORE ASKING… go to the search bar

  • if you still can’t find the answer… FEEL FREE TO ASK, but be sure to mention you have gone to the search bar (Trust me things will be better if you do )

  • Take initiative to search for things instead of just relying on instant help from others,
    NOW QUICK POINT ON THIS
    it’s not that we don’t want to help
    it’s not that want to be rude (as is commonly misunderstood)
    the thing is … .forex DEMANDS that you take it upon yourself to know how to source information. if you can’t do this, you will never be successful in forex
    only ask questions AFTER YOU’VE TAKEN A CRACK OF AT LEAST 1 - 2 HOURS OF TRYING TO FIND THE ANSWER YOURSELF

  • learn to trade safely and protect your account before trying to make profit

  • before going live, ensure you can trade profitably AND CONSISTANTLY for a min of 6 months

i think that should be it for now
Feel free to ask for help mate
be cool

EDIT : oh… seriously… go to the search bar, type in SCAM BROKERS so you know who NOT to pick ok.
we get so many
Please help me , i got scammed, etc etc
Prevention is better than losing money.

be cool

I’ve never heard this question before.

So what’s the point of withdrawing funds from a demo account? Where do you withdraw them to?

@tommor

hi mate, even though i understand what you’re saying and the initial stupidity of it.
it’s actually not.
sometimes it is useful to simulate a real environment
as in… You can test over long term with a non expiring demo
say you open it with $2,000
you get it to say $5,000
Withdraw $2,000
then get it to say $10k then withdraw $3,000
and do something like that

now. where is it withdrawing to… NOWHERE of course
it’s just being taken out of the demo balance, but the trader would record (let’s call it THE VIRTUAL WITHDRAWAL) in a spreadsheet or something

so… there is merit to doing this.

Ah.
I guess so.
:slight_smile:

@tommor
I’ve used this technique with students in the past
they always start by asking how to make money in forex.
then when you say to them it’ll take a year or two, they usually ask how do i make money in the meantime.

Now. this then brings up the subject of having 2 Accounts
1 (let’s call it an Investment / Goal Achieving / Long Term Account)
and a second account ( A Slush / Bill Account / ATM / an Account that pays you each day or week)
the purpose of the second account is not to grow. it’s purpose is to give you a regular income.

now a demo that you withdraw money from is useful for showing them they can indeed make $100 a day (for example) and use it as an income

that’s how i usually use it
that and to test Money strategies relating to growth

11

I think, a number of Forex brokers will not do so (add or remove fund manually).

12

I think, it’s not available option! In this case, you can use back testing service, where you’ll be able to add and remove the account number according to your personal choice.

13

i don’t see why they would not
i mean it’s not real money , it’s not even real funds, it’s just a number on a computer nothing more.

now. i can’t speak for every broker of course, but i know many have no issue doing it.
and why would they , it’s not like they have to pay out anything.

I think so; till now there have enough number of good brokers!

15

Because, a number of brokers are not interested on demo service! You may see, so many limited demo services like 1-3 months!

16

but what i’m saying is YOU CAN REQUEST AN UNLIMITED ACCOUNT AND THEY WILL PROBABLY DO IT

Got your point; maybe they will. Thank you.
