Just because someone is trading live, doesn't mean they are better then someone who trades demo, imo, it is wrong to encourage/peer pressure people to trade live who really don't know what they are doing or aren't ready.

You are only going to lose money trading a live account, working on, testing and attempting different enhancements on your system.

Stormin Normin is a perfect example, he traded demo, then went live, did well, then lost money (blew up two accounts), went back to trading a demo account because he finally understood what its all about, enhanced & refined his trading system to improve his expectancy (this took about a year for him), and now, he is laughing.

p.s. Yes, I am at the stage of improving my expectancy, and I am doing it on a demo account.
