Practice Demo versus Real XAUUSD Trading Account

The xauusd practice practice xauusd account only difference to the live xauusd account is the deposit, with a practice xauusd account a trader can't deposit or withdraw money but with the real xauusd account a trader can deposit and withdraw money & all the trades will be traded using real money and profits can be withdrawn and losses will be deducted from the deposited amount in your xauusd live account.

Traders should use this demo practice trading account to test out their xauusd strategy and practice xauusd until such a time which they can trade the xauusd market profitably. Then when they learn how to make profit on their XAUUSD Demo MetaTrader 4 account then they can open a live gold account and begin trading the real gold trading market.

Once a beginner trader registers for the free demo xauusd account the next step is to learn the xauusd trading platform as well as learn xauusd trading systems and xauusd strategies which will be used to generate xauusd signals for xauusd. The trader will then test these xauusd strategies on the XAUUSD Demo MetaTrader 4 trading account that they will have opened to test if these trade strategies are profitable. Once the xauusd strategies are profitable on the XAUUSD Demo MetaTrader 4 trading account and a trader starts to make consistent profits on their XAUUSD Demo MetaTrader 4 account then they can consider opening a real gold trading account.
