A demo account is certainly a great thing to practice and gain a good trading experience. Still, there is a disadvantage that will not allow you to break into the market immediately. This minus is that on a demo account, you don't feel any emotions, because you are not trading with real money. It is very important to be able to contain your emotions and control yourself. A lot of traders have lost their investments because of greed. So you need to open a small account in which you will trade small sums and slowly train your aging and self-control.

Demo accounts are the replica of live account and are used for the purpose of learning the platform and testing the strategies, EAs. However, the forex market is unpredictable. It is not 100% that if you are making profits on demo account, you are gonna make the same profits on live account. In live account, you will be using your own money so one has to be more cautious while placing the trades.

If you are a new trader, you should do demo trading first. Demo trading helps to develop your skills. There is no such thing as demo trading to use strategy as a new trader. Demo trading is very beneficial in education. In this case, a good broker is needed. A broker can take a trader to a good platform.

It’s not enough but it’s definitely necessary. Demo account is the only way for a new trader to get a feel of the broker before live trading. I personally have used Fxview but you can choose any broker you prefer like Oanda, Alpari or London Capital Group. Just make sure that it is regulated, stay away from scams!

Demo trading is definitely necessary. They might not be enough as they cannot simulate the emotions you might feel when there is real money at stake but I think you can adjust your mindset to treat demo money like real money as much as possible. Regardless, it is useful for testing your strategies before you risk your capital.
