Why CFD trading?

Attractive leverage for traders

You can use leverage in many different trading markets, such as the forex market, but CFDs offer higher leverage potential. This can be very attractive for experienced individuals aware of the risks. You can learn more about using leverage successfully by checking out our blog.

A diverse set of options

Want to speculate on the price of gold or another asset? You can do so with a CFD and trade more than hundreds assets from one account. Prefer to trade on the performance of publicly floated stock or perhaps a broader index? CFDs make this possible too. This is one of the key reasons why CFD trading has generated so much interest globally — there are simply so many different strategies for traders to execute.

The best part is you’ll be able to do all this from a single trading platform, MetaTrader 4 (MT4). This flexibility is a big plus point for some traders.

More freedom in trading

CFD markets permit short trading — i.e., selling a position you believe is about to fall in value. This means traders have more freedom when they make moves with CFDs and can potentially profit no matter which way the market is moving, provided they predict the right direction.

More choice in lot sizes

CFD traders may be able to trade with much smaller lot sizes, making it easier to open and close these smaller trades. Smaller lot sizes are far more suited to traders seeking to reduce risk and capital outlay — although it’s important to remember that there will still be some level of risk involved.

Day trading possibilities

CFD markets also permit day trading — traders open a position for a few minutes or hours up to the time of closing for the market in your area. Traders can then take profit or settle the loss. This means there is no need to keep financing your position long-term, as the trade is opened and closed within the same trading day.
