Darwinex makes demo accounts available. The demo account with Darwinex has the same features as the live accounts. This includes the prices and spreads, the commissions, and the swaps you are charged.

Leverage

Darwinex clients have access to standard leverage levels ( with a maximum leverage of up to 1:30) in line with the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) regulations regarding leverage levels offered to retail traders based in the EU.
