Hi! I just started my journey of self-education in trading and wanted to starting looking at realtime charts. I wanted a platform that structures the data nicely but also allows for creation of a Demo account. Can anyone recommend any free software that allows playing around with fake money?
I recently opened an account with OptionsHouse. They don't have a demo account, but they offer paper trading (which is just trading with fake money as far as I can tell) with their accounts for free. They also have pretty low commissions for real trades. And their trading platform seems nice.

I think MT4 is still the best because it's most popular and supported from most brokers.

I think you should compare different platforms by yourself, as you will work with it later. I chose MT4 cause I see no problems with it, but some traders (whom I trust) use Ninjatrader

For my demo trading I have used Questrade and TradeIt. Also the broker aggregator, TRADE IT, integrates the top brokerages (including Fidelity, Scottrade, Robinhood, and more) in the website where I trade stocks plus with a configurable dashboard terminal...
