How to register an account on PrimeXBT
To register for a PrimeXBT account, you can go to the PrimeXBT website or download the PrimeXBT app.
Registration requires using a valid email address, and only one email can be associated with a single account. After entering your email during registration, you will receive a confirmation email with a verification code. You must enter this code to complete the registration and activate your account.
Before signing up, please note that PrimeXBT does not provide services to users in certain restricted jurisdictions.
Practice on Demo
To help traders practice and develop their strategies safely, PrimeXBT offers a demo account.
The demo account replicates real market conditions, allowing you to trade with virtual funds in a live environment.
While profits and losses are simulated, it’s a great way to learn, test strategies, and get familiar with the platform’s features—without any financial risk.
The funds in a demo account are not real and cannot be withdrawn. It is strictly for practice purposes.
Once you’ve gained experience using the demo, you can take your skills to the next level by joining Contests, where you can compete with other traders in a risk-free setting.
Starting with a demo can help you build confidence and refine your trading strategy before entering the live markets.
