Well certainly my dear, with me Id like to believe that Mt4 trading platform has a lot of tools for trading and it you are new they might confuse you and you might end up doing the wrong thing so it is good to put time aside to just learn ho to use it and the best place to do that is via the demo account, try out different things with it and through that you get to learn a lot on the process and gain the right and necessary skills needed for trading in the real account.
