CFDs Education
Beware The New Kid On the Block
Have you heard about CFDs yet? If you are an active trader, it’s unlikely you have missed them – unless of course you are in the US, where the regulating authorities still have not acknowledged the arrival.
Everybody talks about the great leverage that you can get with CFDs, which means your profits are multiplied. What they do not mention is the downside, where the leverage can work against you if you pick losing trades. For the habitual loser, the CFD provides an excellent way to wipe out your account more quickly than with any other financial tool.
For those who are successful traders, however, the gearing available with CFDs can make realizing your profits much more attainable.
