You can find the other demo account for MT5 (using same MT5 instance to create as many demo/real accounts as you want for example).

As many people are asking about "How to open account with MT5" and "How to add the broker to MT5" so I want to remind the following links:

Find a Server by the Broker's Name

Another convenient new feature of MetaTrader 5 is adding brokers' servers by their names. With the previous version, you had to contact your broker to find out the IP address of the trade server or download a special client terminal. Now, you simply enter the name of the broker. The system automatically finds the server with the specified name and adds it to the list.



 

And this thread as a practical example:

Right mouse click on Accounts in Navigator, then - Open Account, write GEBTrade-5 here:


wait and you will see:


Same with other servers (there are a lot of servers).

I just hope we are talking about Metatrader 5 (not MT4)?
Because it may be the other servers in MT4 (GCI-Demo for example, and others).
