What are CFDs and how do they work?

CFDs are leveraged over-the-counter derivative products that allow you to speculate on price movements of global markets like forex, stocks, commodities and cryptocurrencies, without owning them.

What are the risks involved in CFD trading?

CFDs are high-risk products that involve using borrowed money (leverage) to trade. This means you can lose the entirety of your initial investment if the market doesn’t go your way. It’s important to have a solid risk management strategy in place.
