Understanding Demo Trading with Exness
Our company offers Nigerian traders full access to demo accounts via MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, and Exness Terminal platforms. These demo accounts simulate real market conditions, allowing you to practice without risking actual capital.
Trading with a demo account uses virtual funds, typically set at $10,000, enabling you to trade forex pairs, CFDs on commodities, indices, and cryptocurrencies. All trading tools, charts, and indicators behave exactly as in a live account.
Registration is swift, taking about five minutes, and no identity checks or deposits are required. Demo accounts remain activated indefinitely, providing continuous learning opportunities.
For Nigerian users, the demo account supports the Naira (NGN), helping you observe how currency conversions impact your trading calculations before moving to live trading.
We provide three demo account types that mirror live accounts in spreads, leverage, and execution speed: Standard, Professional, and Raw Spread.
| Account Type | Virtual Balance | Minimum Trade | Leverage | Spreads |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | $10,000 | 0.01 lots | Up to 1:2000 | From 0.3 pips |
| Professional | $10,000 | 0.01 lots | Up to 1:200 | From 0.1 pips |
| Raw Spread | $10,000 | 0.01 lots | Up to 1:2000 | From 0.0 pips |
