Getting started with your FP Markets demo shouldn’t feel like defusing a bomb. You’ve got trades to test, clients to impress, or maybe just a new platform to explore—fast. But let’s be real: sometimes just logging in feels like you’ve missed a memo.

One of our FXBee product engineers said it best: “Most login problems aren’t user errors—they’re setup oversights. We design with clarity in mind.”

So this guide cuts the fluff. You'll get quick-access methods, a dead-simple login walk-through, a setup checklist, and fixes for when things just won’t load.

Skip the guessing game. Let’s get you into that demo account and back to business.

Login tips for cTrader and Iress demo users

Using FP Markets' advanced platforms like cTrader or Iress? Here’s how to make login smoother than a market rally:

cTrader login tips

  • Use your platform-specific login (cTID), not the MetaTrader one

  • Confirm your FP Markets demo server is selected

  • Refresh credentials if you get an “invalid password” message

Iress login tips

  • Bookmark the Iress login page

  • Demo accounts may expire after 30 days of inactivity — reapply if needed

  • Customize your dashboard for quick instrument access (like Stocks & Indices)

These platforms pack serious power — ideal for traders testing multi-asset strategies with technical indicators or automated tools.

5 steps to log into an FP Markets demo account

Logging into FP Markets' demo account is a breeze — just follow these 5 steps and you’re all set to explore like a pro without the pressure of real cash.

Step 1: Choose your account type — demo vs. live

  • Demo account: Practice mode with fake funds — perfect for beginners.

  • Live account: Real money, real risk — only when you're confident.

  • Standard vs Raw: Standard has wider, all-in variable spreads; Raw offers tighter spreads but with commission.

  • Professional and Islamic accounts are for more specific needs — high volume or swap-free trading.

  • Choose demo account during sign-up to test strategies safely.

???? Tip: For practice, demo accounts are your go-to. For actual trading, live accounts are mandatory — pick smart.

Step 2: Select your trading platform and instruments

1. Pick a trading platform — FP Markets offers MT4, MT5, cTrader, and Iress.
         2. Consider your instrument: into Forex? Try MT4. Prefer CFDs on Stocks? Iress might be better.
         3. MT5 supports more order types and assets — great for mixed strategies.
         4. Don’t ignore cTrader if you’re after advanced charting.
         5. WebTrader is best for those who hate downloads.

Quick call: MT4 = simple + fast for forex. MT5 = great all-rounder. Iress = detailed stock trading.          
         Try them all in demo before you commit.

Step 3: Verify email and regulatory compliance notice

Getting your FP Markets account activated means verifying a few important things:

  • Email verification — to confirm you're not a bot or burner.

  • KYC (Know Your Customer) — upload ID and proof of address.

  • AML (Anti-Money Laundering) — global compliance requirements.

  • Regulatory compliance — FP Markets is ASIC and CySEC regulated, which protects your data and funds.

  • Once these are good, demo or live accounts can be activated right away.

"Compliance isn’t about red tape — it’s about protecting every trader's experience"Kai Reynolds, Senior Compliance Manager @ Fxbee

Step 4: Set up charting tools and order preferences

???? Charting Tools:

  • Choose your preferred display: candlesticks, lines, bars.

  • Activate your go-to technical indicators (like RSI, MACD, or Bollinger Bands).

  • Zoom into 1-minute or 1-hour charts depending on your trading style.

⚙️ Order Preferences:

  • Set default order types: market, stop, or limit.

  • Adjust your stop loss and take profit presets to match your risk appetite.

  • Save the setup for faster trading.

This step helps you mirror your real strategy in demo mode so your practice sessions actually mean something.

Step 5: Start trading with one-click execution

Pre-login settings for a smooth demo session

Before jumping into your FP Markets demo account, make sure you're all set for a clean, smooth ride. Here’s your smart pre-login checklist to save you from avoidable headaches.

Before jumping into your FP Markets demo account, make sure you're all set for a clean, smooth ride. Here’s your smart pre-login checklist to save you from avoidable headaches.

Confirm client fund security and ASIC regulation status

  • Always check for ASIC regulation before you dive in.

  • Look for mentions of segregated accounts and client fund protection.

  • Demo or not, understanding regulatory compliance is just smart trading.

???? "Financial safety starts with transparency. Even in demos, we simulate real compliance flows." – Elena Brooks, Fxbee Compliance Manager

Ensure browser/device compatibility for WebTrader and mobile apps

  1. Use Chrome, Firefox, or Safari — Edge works, but can be glitchy.

  2. Make sure your mobile apps are the latest version from App Store or Google Play.

  3. Avoid older operating systems — anything before Android 10 or iOS 13 might crash.

???? Quick tip: Tablets can access WebTrader too — just double-check platform support and screen resolution!

Select trading instruments: Forex, Indices, or Cryptocurrencies

Choose your market vibe:

  • Forex: Great for fast-paced traders — tight spreads, lots of volume.

  • Indices: Ideal for testing broader economic plays (e.g., NAS100).

  • Cryptocurrencies: Wanna ride the rollercoaster? This is your arena.

Each market has different trade settings — make your asset selection count before logging in.

Pre-configure leverage, spreads, and order types

Before logging in, tweak your trading parameters to mirror real scenarios.

PlatformLeverage OptionsSpread TypeOrder Types Supported
MetaTrader 4Up to 1:500VariableMarket, Limit, Stop
MetaTrader 5Up to 1:500VariableMarket, Stop-Limit
cTraderUp to 1:500Raw/ECNOne-Click, Pending

???? Set risk management tools in advance to avoid crazy outcomes. Use FP Markets’ demo for testing those risk thresholds. (FP Markets notes leverage can be up to 500:1 for Pro accounts; retail limits vary by region.)

Test login with segregated account credentials

Heads-up: You can’t log into a demo account using live account credentials.          
✅ Make sure you’ve got your demo login handy.          
✅ Individual and Joint demo accounts require separate email confirmations.          
✅ Want to reset? Use the test account dashboard — super simple.

Oh, and don't forget: segregated account credentials = different login flow.

Verify internet speed for optimal execution performance

When trading on demo, lag can mess up everything — and it’s usually the internet.

  • Your target connection speed: at least 10 Mbps download, 2 Mbps upload

  • Avoid VPNs if they’re slowing your latency

  • Test with platforms like Speedtest.net before you boot up

☑️ Faster network = better execution performance = happier trader. Always check your connection speed before a demo session.

How do I reset my FP Markets demo login password?

Lost your demo login? No biggie — this guide gets you back on track without the tech headaches.

Recovering access via registered email on MetaTrader platforms

  1. Head to the FP Markets login portal

  2. Tap "Forgot Password?" and enter your registered email

  3. Select your MetaTrader demo account ID

  4. Click the reset link in your inbox

  5. Create a new password and confirm login access

Note: Use the exact email tied to your MetaTrader platform, or it won't work.

StepActionRequired InfoError to Avoid
1Open portalFP Markets siteWrong URL
2Submit emailRegistered emailTypo or unregistered email
3Select demo IDMT4/MT5 IDSelecting live instead
4Click reset linkEmail inbox accessExpired/reset token
5Set new passwordNew passwordWeak or mismatched password

Account type matters: Demo vs. Individual vs. Joint accounts

Let’s break it down real quick:

  • Demo account → Most flexible. Can be reset instantly using your email.

  • Individual account → Same as demo, but make sure personal verification is on file.

  • Joint account → You’ll need both parties' confirmation in some cases. Slightly slower reset.

Login process quirks:

  • Joint accounts = double checks.

  • Demo accounts = quickest reset.

  • Individual accounts = standard process.

"Most users don’t realize their login issue isn’t technical — it’s account-type-related," says Mira L., Account Support Manager at Fxbee. "Get the type right, and half the job’s done."

When to contact support for password resets under CySEC regulation

You might need customer support when:

  • You've lost access to your FP Markets demo account and reset emails don’t arrive

  • You're flagged for enhanced CySEC regulation identity checks

  • Your email is tied to multiple account access levels (like demo + individual)

Shoot support a message only after trying email recovery. The help team works fast — just keep your account ID, email, and last login time ready.

???? Pro Tip: If your email has changed, support is your only way in. Keep it clean, and they'll handle it. (For direct help, see FP Markets’ Contact Us page.)

Can’t connect? Fix FP Markets demo platform issues fast

Ever get stuck on the login screen with your FP Markets demo account? You're not alone. Let’s break down the everyday connection issues and get you back on track—fast.

Most common connection problems (and how to fix them)

  • “No Connection” on MT4/MT5?
               ➤ Check your server status—you might be trying to log in to the wrong server. Demo accounts are tied to specific servers like FPMarkets-Demo01.

  • “Invalid account” error?
               ➤ Happens when the login credentials (especially the account number) are mistyped or expired. Demo accounts typically expire in 30 days if inactive.

  • WebTrader loading forever?
               ➤ Could be an issue with internet connectivity, pop-up blockers, or firewall settings. Try switching browsers or disabling extensions.

  • Mobile app login fails?
               ➤ Double-check you're not on mobile data with weak signal. FP Markets recommends at least 4G/WiFi for stable performance.

Quick-fix steps: Get your demo back up in under 5 minutes

  1. Restart your device and router
               Sounds basic, but it clears temporary glitches in your network.

  2. Open the FP Markets platform and re-select the demo server
               In MT4/MT5: Go to “File” > “Login to Trade Account” and carefully re-enter your demo login credentials.

  3. Recheck your account status
               Use the client portal to confirm your FP Markets demo account is still active. Expired accounts won’t connect—no matter what you try.

  4. Test your internet speed
               Anything under 5 Mbps can cause platform errors or freezing. Use tools like Speedtest to be sure.

Engineer insight: “90% of demo login issues are simple fixables”

“Most of the support requests we get are tied to small oversights—wrong server, expired demo, or unstable WiFi. That’s it.”          
Eli Harper, FP Markets Senior Platform Engineer
“I always tell users: don’t panic. If your FP Markets demo account stops working, give it five calm minutes. You’ll fix it faster than you think.”          
Lena Cruz, FP Markets Technical Support Manager
