A lot of people always have the feeling that an Ea on a demo account will produce different results than on a real money account.

 

There is a need for clarification !

A lot of people always have the feeling that an Ea on a demo account will produce different results than on a real money account.

I am of the opinion that this cannot be. The demo account of the broker is independent of Ea?

The opinion of a specialist is needed.

Es besteht Klärungsbedarf !
Viele Menschen haben immer das Gefühl, dass ein Ea auf einem Demokonto andere Ergebnisse erzielt als auf einem Echtgeldkonto.

Ich bin der Meinung, dass dies nicht sein kann. Das Demokonto des Brokers ist unabhängig von Ea?

Die Meinung eines Spezialisten ist erforderlich.

From my personal experience I can say that even though demo accounts offer almost the same trading conditions as the real ones, trading with a demo account is not exactly the same as trading with a real account, because in demo you don't get the depth of market or the speed of trade execution you would get in reality.

With most brokers, demo accounts give a too good to be true feeling for the trading conditions and experience in general, even though prices and spreads are identical.

 

Placing an order on a demo server does not have the same effect on the market then placing an order on a live market feed.

The demo feed is static while a live feed is responsive to your orders.
