I'm Trading an RJ O'Brien futures account, and so far have made a lot of money...

Generally speaking, demo accounts (sim) have been designed to give beginners the illusion that they can trade thousands of illiquid contracts without any problem.

And in most cases there is zero slippage, no matter how big the position is.

The idea, of course, is to entice these newcomers to open a real account immediately.

The only demo that I’ve personally seen was the TT demo.

Thanks for the info.
Too bad they don't do Forex too.

You could sign up for the free demo from TT and trade the CME currency futures.

If you stick to the prompt month it will be accurate as the price feed is directly from TT’s servers.

Since TT was mentioned, I decided to try their demo. Just opened it. Not getting filled on a lot of the contracts, unlike many other demos I have tried. Interestingly they have an 800 leg spread, which I never even contemplated before!!

Yes I know, thanks, but I already have a futures account.

The markets are closed, what are you trying to trade?
Unless you are using the Middle East market, I've heard that they are open during the weekend.

And you said the fills are hard to get with that broker? That's a good sign I guess, as far as their demo platform is concerned.

Yes, but they have a very wide variety of instruments to trade, which is also interesting. You're right, not getting filled on a touch is often an accurate reflection of live trading I guess.

Here's a snap of account so far.
