Does anyone know if there is a way to start or adjust the amount of capital in an FXCM demo account?

It started with $50k but I prefer to use a more realistic starting capital to match my reality.

Thx

I haven't found a way.

Zorro's Capital variable doesn't do what you want?

If not, since it's funny money, you could manually enter a few big trades & close them when you've lost enough! Just like real trading!

Zorro's Capital variable does work, but only for simulations. I'm talking about live forward testing in the demo account. I don't think I can override the actual demo account Balance (can I?)

It's not a huge deal... just a psychological one really. I like to see how sick to my stomach I'll get using a realistic Capital in the account, rather than just "funny money" lol

Hi DT,

If you're using a Trading Station demo, then our tech support team can customize the balance for you. Just email them at techsupport {at} fxcm {dot} com with along with your demo login details.

If you're using the FXCM MT4 platform, then you can actually set the balance for yourself by going to File > Open an Account and completing the demo registration form on the platform itself.

I have setup a demo of 50k on fx pro however when Z12 trades it only trades small amounts ie .02 lots I cant remeber want acocunt factor i used (Set up 12 months) could this impact that the script does ie not looks att he account balance.
