Financial trading platformFree demo trading account

Welcome to gnuTrade – The FREE online trading platform that offers all customers the opportunity to experience the world of financial market trading.

A demo account is a great tool to ease you into the world of online trading if you have never traded before, because it lets you experience real money trading action without spending any of your money. And even if you've already made your trading debut, or consider yourself an accomplished trader, a demo account lets you hone in on your skills and experiment with different trading strategies without risking your cash.

Try trading different markets

If you are purely a stocks and shares trader, for example, you might find a demo account useful to practice index trading (e.g. FTSE, DOW) or learn about forex trading (e.g. EURO, GBP). The demo account therefore enables you to venture into new markets you think you may be interested in trading, without taking any monetary risks. If you decide that a particular financial market (e.g. NASDAQ,) does not suit your interests after all, then you can simply stop trading it and switch your practice to another market (e.g. S&P).

When you trade the markets with our free demo account you will gain exactly the same experience as real money traders using the gnuTrade platform.
