Forex/Stock market.

I'm on a demo account since last friday and have been trading on and off since. Main question is, whats the difference between the live accounts and demo accounts?
I feel skeptical that I turned £50,000 into £130,000 in 3 days. Meaning if I had a live account with the same startup I could turn it into £130,000 in 3 days. This doesn't seem right to me.
Also is it possible to do that out of sheer dumb luck?

I do want to go into this kind of trade, and is it possible for anyone to link me to something they have used to help them?

 

What did you do to turn that 50,000 into 130,000? What were you trading specifically? I'm not too familiar with anything outside of the US markets but could potentially help

I mean it's really possible especially considering how volatile the market is right now - but if you're just starting off it could have been big bets that just went in your favor

Seekingalpha is a nice source of information - but take it with a grain of salt. It's great for brainstorming ideas and seeing other opinions

Investopedia is a fucking great source to learn the basics. Stop sells/buys, Limit sells/buys, options, etc etc.
