Switched my whole take on demo accounts after blowing $800 on live trades in 2 days
I always figured demo accounts were for scared beginners, until I lost $800 in 48 hours on a live account because I had no clue how their platform's order types actually worked. Spent the next 6 weeks on the demo instead, and now I'm wondering why more reviews here don't mention how long someone stuck with paper trading before going live.
