Its a lot of research and dedicating time to knowing the markets and the field.

FDT Forex (ForexMaster) its an app version that I downloaded, but then life got in the way and I forgot my login credentials.

You are able to compete with other people, students and schools.
I have tried out the demo and papermoney accounts. But I think the gains are not realistic as they don't take into account spread and slippage that occur in the market. That's why I wanted start with a really small account ($500) and see how it goes, but didn't want to end up paying $7-$8 commission on $50 positions. $1 commission sounded okay, but they want to see legal status so fuck it. Will have to try another broker.
