Your path from here

1. Open Demo Account 2. Download MT5 3. Connect to Broker 4. Copy Signals 5. Upgrade to VIP
📌 What to Expect

The Roadmap

You'll learn on a risk-free demo account first. Once you're comfortable placing trades and copying signals, you'll unlock VIP — which gives you full course access, live coaching, premium signals, and our trading psychology resources.

⚠️ One rule before you start: Don't skip the demo. Even experienced traders should run 5–10 demo trades on our system first. It's free, it takes pressure off, and it's the fastest path to consistent results.
💡 Before starting: Join the free London Session XAUUSD trade ideas channel — this is where you'll be copying free trade ideas, sent out starting 3PM Manila Time.

Open Your Free Demo Account

What is a demo account? A free practice account loaded with virtual money. You trade real markets in real time — but with no real money at risk. It's identical to a live account in every way except the funds are virtual.

How to open yours (5 minutes):

  • Click the button below and fill in your name, email, country, and phone number
  • Select "Demo Account" when prompted
  • Choose MT5 as your platform (not MT4)
  • Select account currency: USD
  • Set virtual balance: $1,000 (recommended — matches realistic risk sizing)
  • Submit — you'll get an email with your Login ID, Password, and Server name

📋 Copy this somewhere safe once you receive it:

Login ID: ____________
Password: ____________
Server: ____________
✅ Done? Drop a 👍 in the community #onboarding channel so we know you're moving.

Download MT5

What is MT5? MetaTrader 5 is the actual app where you'll place trades. The broker holds your account; MT5 is the dashboard you use to view charts and execute.

✅ Done? Move on to Step 3 to connect MT5 to your broker.

Connect MT5 to the Broker

This is where most people get stuck for 2 minutes and then it clicks. Follow along with the video below.

On Mobile (MT5 app):

  • Open the MT5 app
  • Tap the menu (☰) → Manage Accounts → + (add account)
  • Search for your broker name → select it
  • Choose "Login with existing account"
  • Enter your Login ID and Password, then tap Sign In
⚠️ If login fails: 99% of the time, it's the server name. Make sure you're picking the -Demo server, not the Live one.
🆘 Stuck? Post a screenshot in the #Onboarding channel and a coach will reply within an hour.

How to Copy Signals

What's a signal? A trade idea we send out telling you exactly what to buy/sell, your entry price, your stop loss, and your take profit. You don't have to analyze the market — you just copy our trade.

Anatomy of a signal:

  • Currency Pair — usually XAUUSD (Gold)
  • Entry Price — where to open the trade
  • TP (Take Profit) — your target exit
  • SL (Stop Loss) — your risk limit
✅ Done? Copy at least 3 demo signals this week. Post your results (good or bad) in #demo-results.

Common Questions

FAQ

Is the demo account really free?

Yes. 100% free, no card required, no time limit. You can practise as long as you need.

How long should I stay on demo?

Most members are ready to go VIP after 1–2 weeks of consistent demo trading. The signal: you can place a trade in under 60 seconds without hesitation, and you've logged at least 10 trades.

Why MT5 and not MT4?

MT5 is newer, faster, and supports more instruments. Our signals are designed for MT5.

Is my deposit safe?

Your funds sit in your own broker account — not ours. You control it. You can deposit, withdraw, and close the account at any time. We never touch your money.

What if I lose money on demo?

You won't lose real money — that's the point. Treat losses as data. Each one tells you something about your discipline, your timing, or your setup recognition. Log them in your journal.

Do I need experience to join?

No. About half our members had never traded before joining. The curriculum starts from absolute zero.

How much time do I need per day?

20–30 minutes for learning + 15–30 minutes for trade execution. Most signals are posted during specific market windows; you'll learn to plan around your schedule.

Can I trade on my phone only?

Yes.
