Register for a Forex demo or real account in just a few minutes

To start trading on a currency exchange, you first need to register. Many beginners think they need to register directly on the exchange to trade, but this isn't entirely true.

Becoming a participant in the market independently is practically impossible; it requires not only large sums of money but also expensive licenses.

Therefore, all trading is conducted through intermediaries—dealing centers (brokers), who provide the average trader with access to the currency market, charging their own commission (spread and swap).

Registering for Forex and opening a demo account takes just a few minutes, after which you'll have access to the full functionality of the trader's trading account.

It will also be possible to download the programs necessary for work.

Forex registration follows the following procedure:

1. Choose a dealing center from the list of the most popular companies; it's best to start with brokers that offer cent accounts for practice.

Since this account option allows you to practice on a real account with minimal losses, demo accounts are available at any brokerage company.
2. Complete the registration process by providing your passport and contact information. Cheating at this stage is not advisable, as documentary confirmation of the entered data is almost always required.

3. Verification is the confirmation of your data, which requires uploading scans of your passport, confirming your phone number, and confirming your email address.

Sometimes you'll also need to confirm your residential address by uploading scanned copies of gas or electricity bills.

4. Open an account —either a demo (training) account or a real account for trading with real money. Don't forget to pay attention to the required amount to activate the account.

Accounts are often opened automatically during the initial registration process with a forex broker. When opening a live or demo account, you specify the leverage you plan to use

5. Fund your open account – this can usually be done with a bank card or through electronic payment systems, but there are many other options.

That's practically all there is to forex registration; after that, all you have to do is download the trading terminal and start opening trades. The entire process rarely takes more than an hour, with the exception of brokers requiring notarized copies of your documents to be sent by mail.
