Online Equity and CFD Trading with Saxo bank


Online CFD Trading

Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are providing an increasing number of investors with a more flexible method of online stock trading.

CFD trading occurs on Saxo Bank's online trading platforms, with live stock prices eliminating the delays involved in normal stock trading from awaiting fills from the stock exchange.

Why Trade CFDs with Saxo Bank?

  • Investors can short sell CFDs, which opens the possibility of making a profit in a falling market through efficient hedging of current Stock positions.
  • With online CFD trading, investments can be leveraged a maximum of 20 times, a process of margin trading that also increases risk however
  • CFD prices stream directly to a user's desktop, providing instant fills and leading to the possibility of deeper liquidity.
  • Index Tracking CFDs provide instant exposure on global stock markets. These Index trackers are linked to the performance of a stock market index, and offer the possibility of long and short trade.

Flexible online trading with CFDs

Saxo Bank clients are granted access to online CFD trading for all major US, European and Asia/Pacific Equities, in addition to Index tracking CFDs tied to major global indices. Online CFD trading is effective for trading in bull and bear markets, as it allows for hedging of current Equity investments and the potential to make a profit in a falling market. CFDs can be sold short, meaning traders can effectively sell falling equities and make a profit if the market moves according to their predictions.

More benefits of online CFD trading:

  • Adding CFD trading to FX, Equities, Options and Futures allows investors to build a diverse, multi-product portfolio from a single account, making for an ideal investment mix
