How it works

I believe they are more or less evaluating traders until they are handed a "live account," and they are letting them do simulation until they are deemed fit. The cost of the payout for a successful trader is nothing compared to the revenue the rake in from failed traders and from their live traders.

Once you are evaluated as a fit for live, they actually *force* you to become one; you have no choice. But, at that point in time, I've heard it's better to start trading with your own capital anyway... There's plenty of education to be had here, even if you don't pass imo.
