    Hi everyone, first time post but long time lurker. Am fairly new to futures trading and would like to get a long term simulated account. Was at GFT but they only allowed two weeks. Can anyone spare info of a good futures broker/platform that allows a longer term simulated trading before depositing real cash. Used the search function but dang there's just too much arguing to find good info and the number of brokers available is daunting. Thanks a bunch for any recommendations, sorry to waste your time if i've bored you.

    Optionsxpress has a virtual trader, and in there is a futures section. They don't require that you fund an account to use the Virtual Trader, just sign up with your name, address, phone number, etc. as though you are opening an account. Then don't fund it until you are ready.
