With demo trading (simulated live trading), you can view sample pages and place mock trades. Demo trading can be particularly helpful for new CQG IC users.
A limited set of symbols is available in demo mode.
To Log in using Demo Mode:
• Select a Trade Routing Application, such as the DOMTrader, and click Logon.
• Select the Demo Tab.
• You do not need to enter in any information. Click OK and Demo trading is available.
• The “Logon” button will change into a “DEMO” button with an orange background.
• The word “DEMO” is displayed in the title bar.
• A watermark indication you are in DEMO mode will appear across the main CQG window.
Note: In demo mode when you log on to trade, the system automatically logs you on with a demo account.
To move from demo to live trading
When you’re ready to trade on your live account, you can exit demo trading mode. Make sure you’re logged off trading.
• Select a Trade Routing Application, such as the DOMTrader, and click Logon.
• Select the Live Account tab.
Note: In live mode when you log on to trade, you are prompted for your user name and password.
When connected to a live trading account, the “Logon” button will change into a “LIVE” button with a green background.
