Why is money randomly disappearing from my TT demo account?

    I am trying yet another demo account, and yet again encountering issues. This time with Trading Technologies. Whenever I make a profit or loss, when I log back into the account, the virtual funds have either reset or gone completely. Hoping this does not happen with a live account.

    You will get a .pdf Futures Statement from your clearing firm/broker every evening with your MtoM P&L and your account equity. Rely upon that and not anyone's software. TT does not clear trades.

    Judging by your posts and replies to people on here, you're the fool.

    Actually they are sending you a helpful message. HOW so??
    KEEP yourself an ink trading notebook/stuff happens.
    Slippage happens, so note that also.
    Anybody can make errors, including us. One of my favorite data providers had a temp weekly increase of 0.4%; I knew its was 4.0% because I keep up with it, and kept a paper notebook. At least write it on scrap envelopes, if you think you may not want to trade enough to invest in the right stuff/notebook...……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………...

    Could be slippage or could be other. Have a check with log, it should mention that. If not, then it would be good idea to get in touch with their support.

    It’s not an “account” in actuality. It isn’t linked to a capitalized FCM account.

    With everything that you do for “free” there’s a limit to what you get for “free”.

    TT is the best there is when it comes to a commonly available futures trading platform.

    If you're US citizen just go with TOS demo. Works fine. Tho it has some slight issues as well.

    All of my currency trades, profit YTD became -$10 000 for some reason (only in android app), and results differ a little bit from the ones in desktop version.

    Other that that, - great choice.

    Kudos for this part. Don't give up.

    And those were closed positions. That were closed in +3% ~.

    It's coronas fault, no other explanation :confused:

    But the desktop works all fine.
