CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Excess volatility increases risk further. Be cautious. Past performance is not an indication of future results.

Practice from a phone

The demo account, practised from a phone · India

A demo account is free practice with virtual money on real market prices. This page is about what a phone changes about that practice — and about the parts no device touches at all.

A demo opens with an email and a password, arrives filled with virtual money, costs nothing and has no time limit. A phone changes how a sitting runs — how much is read at once, when it happens, how close the next tap is. It does not change what is practised.

The phone holds the view, not the account

The prices come from the market, and a demo shows the same ones a real account shows. The virtual money sits in the account. An order, once sent, is held on the trading server — and so is a stop-loss: the level is stored there, not on your phone. The device supplies two things only: a view of all that, and your hand.

Everything below follows from that split: where a phone changes the practice, it does so through the view or through the hand.

What the device decides, and what it never touches

Part of a sitting Decided by the device? Settled instead by
The prices on the screen No The market — the same prices a real account shows
The virtual money No The account, from the minute it opens
An order after it is sent No The trading server
A stop-loss after it is set No The trading server, not your phone
How much is in view at once Yes Whatever is in your hand
When a sitting starts and stops Yes Where the device is kept — usually nearby
Whether anything is installed Partly The Exness Trade app is for phones; Exness Terminal runs in a web browser

The same demo, on a phone and on a computer

In one sitting From a phone From a computer
How much is in view Less at a time, taken in piece by piece More at a time, one look covers more
Where the account and the orders live Not in the phone — on the trading server Not in the machine — the same server
What has to be installed Built for phones; Exness Terminal works in a phone’s browser Exness Terminal runs in a web browser — nothing at all
What a mistake costs on a demo Nothing — the money is virtual Nothing — the same virtual money

Two rows differ, two read the same: that is the honest size of the gap. MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 are there too, for more experienced traders.

What a phone makes harder in one sitting

  • Less arrives at once. A sitting turns into a run of single looks, and whichever piece is showing feels like the whole picture. The repair: one question per look.
  • The next tap is very close. Nothing here costs money, which is why the counting habit is built here: what a trade could lose goes through the practice calculator first.

And what it makes easier

  • No hour has to be booked. Five honest minutes come round far more often than a free evening does.
  • Stopping costs nothing. Put it down mid-practice and nothing expires: there is no time limit, and nobody pushes you towards real money.

Opening a demo when the phone is the only device

  1. Pick the way in

    The Exness Trade app is built for phones, and Exness Terminal also works in a phone’s web browser — nothing to install for that one. The button below opens the official Exness website, where the demo lives.

  2. Type an email and a password

    That is everything a demo asks for. No deposit, and no identity documents — those come later, and only for a real account.

  3. Choose the demo when the platform asks

    It arrives filled with virtual money, so practice starts in the same sitting. Registration stage by stage is on how to open an account.

This site is an independent guide and does not speak for any broker: it opens no accounts and holds no money. Wherever the email is typed, read the address bar first — it should say exness.com.

Two differences no device removes

The mechanics carry over whole: same prices, same platform, same orders. Two things do not, and neither is about screens. One is what it feels like — losing virtual money is a number moving, losing real money is not, and that gap is where rushed decisions come from. The other is the loss itself: here a bad trade costs nothing.

So demo results do not guarantee real-account results, and no number of sittings settles the date. What carries over is habits: a stop-loss on every trade, the possible loss known before the confirmation, a losing run sat through without doubling the size. Keep the first real trades small — risk basics covers how.

Questions asked from a phone

Can a demo really be practised from a phone alone?

Yes — the app is built for phones, Exness Terminal works in a phone’s browser, and a demo needs only an email and a password.

Does anything have to be installed before practising?

Not necessarily: Exness Terminal runs in a web browser, with nothing to install. The app is the other route in.

A sitting ends and the device is put away — what carries on?

The open trade and its stop-loss: the level is stored on the trading server, not on your phone.

Is practice from a phone worth less than practice at a desk?

It is the same practice: none of it is kept in the device. Only the view and the hand differ.

Can the practice be continued on a computer later?

Nothing has to be carried across: the account sits on the broker’s side, and another screen is another view of it.

Does a demo cost anything when it is opened this way?

No — a demo is free on any device: nothing deposited, nothing to cancel, no limit on how long it is used.

Are documents needed just to practise?

No — an email and a password are all a demo takes. An identity check with documents belongs to a real account.

Is a demo worth keeping once real trading has started?

Yes, and it is common: a demo can stay open beside a real account, for trying something out or after a losing streak. The habits it catches are under beginner mistakes.
