CFD Trading Online

CFD trading online allows to speculate on market price movements without actually owning the underlying asset of the contract.

What Is CFD Trading online?

Contract for Difference or CFD, as it is shortly known, is an agreement between two parties to exchange the difference between the opening and closing prices of the contract. The difference between the opening and closing prices may cause either loss or profit.

CFDs can be used to speculate on the fluctuations of the prices. When trading CFD it is possible to get profit both from falling and rising prices. In both cases it is possible to open either long or short positions. Traders prefer long positions when the increase of price in future is expected and short positions, when it is expected that the prices will fall and it buying with lower prices will result in future. Short trade strategy is practically difficult on the stock exchange while in case of CFD both long and short positions may be opened quite easily. In case of a rational trading strategy it is possible to gain profit even on the falling market.

At the moment of closing positions the change of the asset price is calculated. If the asset price has increased, the seller pays the buyer the difference between the initial value of the asset and its current value. Whereas, if the asset price has fallen, the buyer pays the seller.
