What is Quotex?
Quotex is an online platform where you trade over short time frames. You pick a market, such as a currency pair, decide how much to use, and predict whether the price will be higher or lower when the timer ends. It runs in a web browser and also has an Android app listing. This site is an independent guide to it. You can see the short version on our Quotex trading platform guide home page.
How Quotex trading works
- Pick a market. Choose an asset and look at its chart.
- Set the amount and time. Decide how much to use and for how long.
- Predict the move. Choose up or down.
- Wait for the result. When the timer ends, the trade closes as a win or a loss.
You can feel this flow without any real money. Try our free practice trade simulator on the home page. It uses random data, so it shows how a trade feels but cannot predict anything about real markets.
Quotex register: how to sign up
- Choose Register (or sign up) on the platform.
- Enter your email address and a strong, unique password.
- Confirm your email if you are asked to.
- Start on the demo account before you consider a deposit.
Our 3-step sign-up overview on the home page shows the same steps in short form.
Quotex login: step by step
- Open the platform from a trusted link, not from a message or an advert.
- Check the web address before you type your password.
- Enter your email and password.
- If you forgot your password, use the reset option and check your spam folder.
If login still fails, our guide to Quotex login problems lists the common causes, from wrong details to network and browser issues.
Quotex demo account
A demo account lets you trade with virtual money. It is the safest way to learn the screen, the timers and the charts. Use it to practice reading a chart, choosing a trade size and setting a fixed limit for each session.
Remember that demo results do not predict real results. With no real money at stake, it is easier to stay calm and take risks you would not take with your own funds. For the full walk-through, read how to open and use a Quotex demo account, or compare the two account types in our demo vs real account table.
Quotex live account vs demo account
A "live" account is simply the real-money account. You log in the same way and then switch from demo to live.
| Demo account | Live account | |
|---|---|---|
| Money used | Virtual funds | Your own money |
| Risk of loss | No real money at risk | You can lose your whole deposit |
| Deposit | Not needed | Required |
| Verification | Usually not needed | May be needed before withdrawing |
| Best for | Learning | Only after you understand the risks |
Before you ever use a live account, read the current terms for deposits and withdrawals on the platform, and only use money you can afford to lose.
Quotex app download and APK safety
For Android, the safe route is the official Google Play listing. At the time of writing, it appears as "QxBroker - Investing Platform" and is rated 18+. If you cannot find an app for your phone, you can use Quotex in your mobile browser instead, with no download.
You may also see searches for a Quotex APK download. An APK is an install file from a website instead of an app store. Files from unknown sites can contain malware or be fake copies built to steal your login. We do not offer APK files and recommend you avoid them. Our Quotex app download guide has the safe steps, and our India guide to login, demo and APK safety explains the APK risks in more detail.
Is Quotex legal in your country?
It depends on where you live, and rules change. Quotex says its services are not available in the USA, Canada and some other countries. Some countries restrict or warn against this type of trading, and payments to overseas platforms can be blocked by banks. We cannot tell you what is legal for you personally, so check your local regulator before you register.
We have country guides for Quotex in Bangladesh and Quotex in India.
