Switching an account between Demo, Live and Challenge
How to switch an MT5 account's type between Demo, Live, and Challenge from the account card's Edit dialog.
Each account card has an Edit action (pencil icon). The account type (Demo, Live, Challenge) is purely a label. It does not change execution behaviour, but it affects how the analytics page groups results.
- Click Edit on the account card.
- Change the Account Type dropdown to Demo / Live / Challenge.
- Set the Risk% used for trade sizing.
- Save. The card relabels immediately and future trades use the updated Risk%.
Account nickname, type, MT5 account number, and Risk% can be edited here. Changing the account number requires the EA setup to match the new MT5 account number.
