All Accounts operate in simulation. Your orders are not routed to any exchange and do not create positions in live markets. This removes real financial risk on your trades, but it also means the experience differs from live trading in ways that matter:
- Execution differs. Fills, slippage, order queue priority, and liquidity in a simulated environment may not
match how the same order would behave in a live market.
- Market behavior differs. Trading hours, available instruments, volatility, and market dynamics in simulation may differ from live conditions.
- Emotional and psychological factors differ. Without real money at risk on each trade, decision-making can differ from live trading. Traders may take on more risk, over-trade, or behave with less discipline than they would with their own capital at stake.
Success in the simulated environment does not guarantee, indicate, or predict success in live trading. You should treat the Platform as a skill-assessment and learning tool, not a forecast of real-market results.
