Are demo accounts limited in any way?

You may open as many demo accounts as you wish. Demo accounts can be recharged with funds via PhoenixForex Direct. However, please note that demo accounts will be deactivated after 180 days. Also, our MT4 and MT5 demo accounts are limited to a maximum of 70 open positions.

Although demo accounts present real market conditions and prices, please keep in mind that they are simulations and cannot always reasonably reflect all of the market conditions as during highly volatile or illiquid periods (e.g. market openings, news announcements) they may not behave in the same manner as live accounts.

Margin and leverage settings may vary between your demo and live account and you should not expect any success with the Demo Account to be replicated in your live trading.

For this reason, it is strongly recommended that demo accounts are viewed solely as a learning tool for inexperienced traders or a place for testing new trading strategies.
