Academy Guides
Understand the basics
Begin by reading guides on market fundamentals, such as 'What is Forex?', 'How to Trade Stocks?', and 'What is Cryptocurrency?'.
Learn the platform features
Explore guides on using eToro's CopyTrader and other platform features like leverage, stop-loss, and take-profit options.
Study trading strategies
Learn about technical and fundamental analysis, risk management, and position sizing.
Take notes
As you study the guides, take detailed notes on key concepts, trading strategies, and market behaviors.
Demo Account Practice
Get comfortable
Familiarize yourself with eToro's interface. Experiment with different asset classes (stocks, forex, crypto, etc.).
Test strategies
Implement what you've learned. Test out different investment approaches like day trading and swing trading.
Monitor results
Keep a trading journal to track your virtual trades. Analyze what worked and what didn't.
Risk management
Use stop-loss and take-profit features to protect your trades, even with virtual money.
Market conditions
Practice in different market conditions (uptrends, downtrends, sideways markets) to prepare for real scenarios.
Transition to Real Money
Once you've consistently achieved positive results on your demo account, consider opening a real account with small capital.
Apply the strategies that worked for you in the demo environment but remain cautious—real-money trading involves different psychological pressures.
