Account categories
Sign in to the Client Portal.
From the left navigation menu, select Accounts.
Choose Live accounts, Demo accounts or Archived accounts.
Live accounts: Trading accounts that use real funds.
Demo accounts: Practice accounts that use virtual funds.
Archived accounts: Accounts that have been moved out of the active account view.
Choose your first account after signup
After signup, the Client Portal opens and displays a popup asking you to create either a Live Account or a Demo Account. The system does not create either account until you choose. After you select Live or Demo, it creates your first account of that type.
For the first Live or Demo Account, the trading password and investor/read-only password are not sent by email. Update both passwords yourself in the Client Portal before using the account.
Open additional accounts
FXTRADING.com does not set a maximum number of Live or Demo trading accounts. You can open different accounts to compare the account types available to your profile and test the trading environment. The account types and configurations available for each new account can still depend on your profile, eligibility and the current options displayed in the Client Portal.
Select Open New Account. Choose an available account type, select Continue, then complete the account-type and configuration fields displayed. For a Demo Account, set Account type to Demo. The first Demo Account created after you select Demo uses USD as its base currency and starts with USD 10,000 in virtual funds. When you create additional Demo Accounts, you can select your preferred base currency from the available options. Every new Demo Account starts with 10,000 units of virtual funds in its selected base currency, regardless of the currency selected.
Review an account card
Each account card displays key identifiers and account information, such as the account type, trading platform and account number. The exact financial metrics and actions shown can depend on the account and its status.
Use only the actions displayed on the relevant card. For example, Deposit and Trade may be available for an eligible account.
