CFD trading

Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are derivative products which enable you to trade on the price movement of financial assets (such as shares). You can trade CFDs if you believe the price of a financial instrument is likely to go up in value (strengthen) and if you think it is likely to go down (weaken). Your profit or loss in online CFD trading is determined by the difference between the price you buy at and the price at which you sell.
