Yes, it's like playing strip poker without actually removing your clothes. Therefore take it from me since I've been through hell before, always respect every trade you make. You need to zone your mind before you begin, tell yourself repeatedly how crucial it is to treat it real coz one day the training wheels will be off, and you may only have 1 chance. And when you start real, start only with a tiny amount. This is not to get rich off. But to convince yourself you are good enough not to be margin called.
