What are stock CFDs?
A Contract for Difference, or CFD, is a financial contract that pays the difference in price between the opening and closing trades. When you trade a CFD, you’re getting the same exposure as you would if you had bought the asset it tracks, but instead of investing in the market, you’re buying a contract for a fraction of the stock’s value.
Why trade stock CFDs?
Many savvy traders have uncovered the appealing advantages of trading CFDs, such as trading on leverage and the ability to short a stock, and have decided that this alternative method of trading better suits their aspirations.
How do I trade stock CFDs?
Whether you are going long or short, trading CFDs is as simple as trading any other product on our platform.

Remember, leverage exposes you to greater potential profits but also greater potential losses.
