I have also demo accounts ... you can see how many -


If one demo account is not good so I will create the other one with the other broker (and in this way - we all are selecting the good broker to trade) -


 
It's been a long time since someone reported "Waiting for update."
  1. According to IBFX, open market watch (Control+M) drag the symbol to the chart. Init() probably would fire.

  3. On MT4 try closing the terminal and delete «data folder»\..\config\terminal.ini You'll lose the placement of any open charts.

Otherwise, backup your data, uninstall the terminal, delete the data directory, reinstall.
