In this talk, I will show the main results of a series of articles related to numerical simulations of CME deflections carried out by the IATE Astrophysical Plasma Group. The study of the CME deviation is of utmost importance to improve real-time forecasts of space weather. At a low coronal level the greatest deviation from the CME occurs and we find numerically that the location of the local regions of minimum magnetic energy are the main responsible for producing the non-radial trajectory.
