Check the active account

Before placing any order, check the account number and currency at the top of Web Trader. The green connection indicator confirms that the workspace is connected. The chart occupies the center, the watchlist and order ticket are on the right, and your positions and history are below. These panels all belong to the currently selected account.

How it works

From the full Web Trader window, look at the very bottom of the narrow left sidebar. The square account icon is in the bottom-left corner. Click it to open My accounts. That is the list we will use next to find and switch between available connected accounts.

Click the account icon at the bottom left to open My accounts. Search for the terminal name, account login, or server. Here, searching for Copier Demo finds our second demo account. Select a running account to switch. A stopped or unavailable terminal must be managed in the control panel first. After switching, always check the header again before trading.

The header now shows the follower demo account. Switching accounts changes the account context; it does not copy trades between them. For this lesson, we switch back to our primary demo account before opening an order. Keep this account check as a routine part of your workflow.
