Demo Accounts use virtual funds and are intended for practising with the trading platform. The first Demo Account created automatically by the system always 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.
