Real Account Go/No-Go Checklist

The checklist

• I have run this exact setup on a demo account first Demo accounts exist for a reason: practise the switch before real money is involved. Why start on demo.
• I understand the extension behaves the same on a real account There is no separate demo or real configuration; the same extension and settings work on whichever account is active. What stays the same.
• I know what changes when the money becomes real Demo results say nothing about live behaviour; losing streaks hit differently once stakes are real. Why demo and real differ.
• I have checked the real-account payout and my Minimum payout % setting A lower payout raises the win rate needed to break even (break-even at payout p is 1 / (1 + p)). Verify the payout shown on the pair before trading it. Why the payout filter matters.
• My Martingale Steps is a finite number, not Infinite Limiting Steps is the real way to cap a losing streak — there is no separate stop-loss or daily-loss-limit setting. Martingale doubles the stake after each loss, and a losing streak can wipe out a balance. Martingale risk, explained.
• I have written my session end point before opening the platform Decide in advance when a session ends. The bot has no built-in daily-loss limit, so the end point is yours to set and enforce. When to stop a session.
• I will keep the Pocket Option tab visible while the bot trades A background or minimised tab can delay trade-result detection. Decide now how you will keep the tab visible. Why the tab must stay open.
• I will log in to Pocket Option myself and never type the password anywhere else The bot operates the Pocket Option page already open in your own browser, logged in as you, and does not move accounts or funds. Install and login.
• I have confirmed which plan my Pocket Option ID has Anyone can check whether a Pocket Option ID already has a plan on the setup guide (“Check my Pocket Option ID”). Know what you are running before you run it. Plans and accounts.
• I understand withdrawals are Pocket Option’s own flow Withdrawals go through Pocket Option’s own normal flow, the same whether trades were placed by hand or by the extension. Withdrawals after bot trading.
• I know Pocket Option’s stated position on bots Pocket Option’s own blog says automated strategies are fine as long as they comply with platform rules, and names market manipulation — not automation — as the explicit ban risk. That is their blog, not their formal Terms of Service, which we have not read directly; for a definitive answer on your own account, ask Pocket Option support. What Pocket Option says about bots.
• I have decided: go, or stay on demo Whether to fund a real account is your decision; if you do, only use money you can afford to lose. If any box is unticked, keep practising on demo until it is. How to switch accounts.
