Comparison of Live and Demo
Hi,

I would like to know how different it would be between Live and Demo environments.

Is the number of price records from FXCM in Live more than one in Demo?

Is chances of reject of deal in Live less than ones in Demo?

Please give me your advice.

Best Regards,
Kino----a

You do see the same price with live as you do with demo. In that sense there is not change.

As for order execution, we try to simulate the live environment as closely as possible. The demo environment might execute a little differently than the live environment. Best thing to do would be to actually place small trades with a live account to see how execution differs. Your experience might be different depending on the times and the environments that you place your trades in.


Let us know if you have any other questions.
