More About Share CFDs
Shares are a staple investment product and the one that most people think of first when it comes to trading and investment. Trading shares with a CFD derivative is an excellent way to participate in this market since you can go long or short on the market’s direction.
Share CFDs are best suited to day-traders, as the CFD product allows you to use leverage to amplify profits within daily fluctuation.
Amplify profits with leverage: Trade using leverage to spread your capital further and amplify profits
Go long or short: Trading share CFDs means you can go long or short on the market in either direction
Take part in a staple part of the FS sector: Shares are a fundamental investment product, so you’ll be adding something classic to your portfolio
The main difference between trading CFDs (which are often referred to as contracts for difference) and trading real shares is that when you trade in CFDs you’re speculating on a market’s price without taking ownership of the underlying asset. However, trading shares mean that you do own the underlying stocks – and this comes with a range of advantages and disadvantages.
One benefit of trading CFDs over actual shares is leverage. You can trade CFDs on margin, meaning you’ll only need to put up a fraction of the full value of the trade to gain full exposure. This leverage means you have a bigger opportunity to profit – or to make a loss. However, when you trade shares you’ll need to pay the full cost upfront, and you can’t amplify your profits hugely either.
