What are Futures CFDs?
A Futures CFD is a financial derivative that allows traders to speculate on the future price movements of various underlying assets, including forex pairs, energy commodities, and soft commodities.
Speculative Trading
When you trade futures CFDs, you are not buying or owning the underlying asset itself. Instead, you are entering into a contract with your broker to exchange the difference in the asset's price between the contract's opening and closing.
Leverage
Futures CFDs offer traders the advantage of leverage, allowing them to control a larger position size with a smaller initial balance. While leverage can amplify profits, it also magnifies potential losses.
Trade Long or Short
Take a position long or short across your preferred futures CFDs. This means you can take advantage of price movements whether the markets are going up or down.
No Physical Ownership
Unlike traditional futures contracts, where physical delivery of the asset may be required, futures CFDs do not involve the actual exchange of assets. Instead, they settle in cash, with profits or losses credited or debited to the trader's account.
