    I'm not a fan of demo contests. To win them you need to take on risks that you would not take in real life. So what is the point developing something that you wouldn't use for real. The prize is usually only a couple of thousand pounds so why bother

      thank you!! huge words explaining the truth.
      demo is good for learning, but if you stay on demo for too long you will either never trade live because you are too afraid or - if you do - the effect as explained in the quote above will occur.

        The demo is a crutch - at the beginning it's necessary while you learn how to walk, but once you do begin to learn you need to get to a point where you're self-sufficient.

          I don`t agree. Sometimes experienced traders use demo to test some new strategies.

            Here the keyword is "sometimes", and the second is "experienced traders". And many newcomers are so scared to go into their own sailing, that they sit on demo accounts for years.

              I disagree. Demo and live trading are two completely different animals.

                  Learning to drive a car with an instructor is not the same as trading a demo account. Then if you draw a parallel, it's better to be a mentor or teacher than a demo account.
