Is pricing different on the City Index demo?
No pricing is the same on both the demo and the live trading account, you also get the same margin rates. you can see this in the screenshot below which shows the exact same DAx pricing in both the live and demo versions.

Can you open a City Index MT4 demo account?
No, you can only open a demo of City Index’s main WebTrader platform or app. If you want an MT4 demo, to be honest, there are better options, as in my view City Index’s proprietary trading platform is better than MT4.
Can you trade on the City Index demo with Spread betting or CFDs?
City Index’s demo account is generic so when you log in you see pricing for both spread betting and CFDs where pricing is the same.
City Index’s demo account lets you trade for 12 weeks with a virtual balance of £10,000 on all the 13,500 markets that are available on the live trading platform.
City Index have one of the best demo trading accounts on offer as it is essentially a carbon copy of their live trading platform, which includes trading signals, performance analytics and access to the same broad range of tradable assets.
