Just a couple more advantages of trading Forex.
So we we need somewhere to trade. As stated earlier, this is all done online via the internet. The good thing about this, is that most brokers offer unlimited demonstration platforms where you can practice trading for as long as you like without risking any of your own money. This is brilliant if you want to try out different trading methods and ideas. Commonly referred to as 'demo trading'.
There is no reason that you can't have both a 'live' and 'demo' account with the same Broker. Just make sure you don't get them confused.
Demo trading is quite a useful tool where you can try out different things etc, but please be warned, trading on a 'demo' account is nothing like trading on a 'live' account as there is zero risk with a 'demo' account and therefore your emotions do not come into play at all. It is like walking across a plank of wood 6 inches above the ground, compared to walking across the exact same plank of wood ten stories up in the air. I'm sure your emotions would be different, and the same goes for trading. When there is real money on the line, you will act different! Trust me on this.
And to take this one step further, Forex data is live and it is free. Unlike a lot of stock data where you have to pay a monthly data subscription fee or be stuck with 15 minute delayed data, your Forex data is all freely provided to you by your chosen broker's trading platform. More on brokers and their platforms later.
