How long to be in demo trading?

[Daantje Pieters]

I think traders should stick to demo trading as long as they are with Forex market because demo isn’t only for learning but it is also for many other reasons.

Demo trading is the tool where you can learn and apply your trading skills and methodology without loosing money. once your trading setup works, and you have confidence then. you should move to the real one.

I would say to stick with it for at least 3 months until you're profitable!!

I think that until you can trade profitably on a demo account for six months, it is better not to open a real account. You must first make sure how your trading strategy works in different market conditions and what results it produces. It may need to be modified and improved before you switch to a real account. And this takes time.
