Q: What is the best way to operate the trading dome and can I use it on a wireless connection?

A: It is possible to run the platform wirelessly, however expect to have more frequent disconnections and other related issues. If possible run your dome from a hard wired internet connection.

A: When you log into the platform the first section that will come up is the score board this section will give the overall information but you cannot trade from it. If the trading dome does not open with the scoreboard you will need to manually open it from the scoreboard. Please click on the D as shown in the picture below.

Step 6
Start Simulation Trading (practise trading) for a recommended 50 trades

What is Simulation Trading?

Simulation is where you use a Trading Platform to trade live markets without using real money. This is called paper trading. Everything is happening in real time. Only the money is fictitious!

Why is Simulation a Must?

Paper trading is a MUST.  It gives you time to learn the power of our trading methods and the Infinity ATplatform without having to risk your capital. This practise will ensure that when it comes time for you to trade with hard cash, you'll be ready and confident, with a sound and tested understanding of the 21st Century Trading System.

While paper trading, it is essential to keep a records a diary, spreadsheet or simple list of the trades you take. This paper record will assist you to learn from your mistakes and help you develop your own trading style, plan, trading goals and profitable trading habits.

We strongly recommend that you paper trade for at least 50 trades. At the end of this time, if you are consistently profitable, you are now ready to start trading with hard money.
