MT4 account Q

 
How can I be sure my account is real and not a demo account? For example, how can I find out what market place my MT4 account is hooked up against?
 
  1. Why do you care? Other than diagnostics during non-live/non-optimizer modes, you shouldn't be doing anything different.
  2. Test for it.

Thank you for your reply.

1. I'm only asking since I have lost contact with my broker and wondering if my account is for real or if its a fake?

2. Not sure what to do in the link.

  1. Did you send them money?
  2. Nothing unless you were asking how to tell in code.

 
1. Yes, I have invested money and need some advice. Help much appreciated.
