CFDs are derivatives products that allow you to trade on live market price movements without actually owning the underlying instrument on which your contract is based.You can use CFDs to speculate on the future movement of market prices regardless of whether the underlying markets are rising or falling. You can go short  (sell), allowing you to profit from falling prices, or hedge your portfolio to offset any potential loss in value of your physical investments. CFDs are leveraged products, enabling you to trade by paying just a small fraction of the total value of the  contract. This means you can potentially magnify your return on investment. Remember, however, that higher leverage can result in losses that could exceed your initial deposit. Please see our risk disclosure concerning some of the risks associated with this type of trading.

Ability to Go Long or Short

CFD trading enables you to go long (buy) if you believe market prices will rise, or go short (sell) if you believe market prices will fall. So if you believe that a company or market will experience a loss of value in the short term, you can use CFDs to sell it today, and your profits will rise in line with any fall in that price. However, if the market moves against you, your losses will also increase. CFDs are therefore a flexible alternative to trading the movements of market prices as they enable you to benefit from any move, regardless of whether the markets are rising or falling

CFDs allow the flexibility to trade in a variety of markets, with the option of going long or short. Moreover, CFDs are traded on margin accounts, which allow you to invest only a fraction of what you actually trade.
