Frequently asked questions

What are the advantages of trading CFD Indices?

Trading CFD Indices presents an excellent avenue for accessing the stock indices market without possessing the actual assets.

By speculating on index performance rather than investing in it outright, you can profit from price fluctuations, regardless of their direction.

Leveraging allows entry into the global indices market with a fraction of the capital needed for direct investment.

This not only broadens access to major indices for many traders but also offers diverse trading prospects across various time frames, particularly when complemented with robust technical analysis of index charts.

What is the difference between CFD and indices?

The key contrast lies in leverage trading, which is available with Index CFDs, offering increased market exposure with less capital. With Index CFDs, you can trade a range of indexes, including but not limited to S&P 500, NASDAQ 100, Dow Jones Industrial Average, DAX30, FTSE 100, and others.

Differences between trading index CFDs and stock CFDs

Although both CFD Indices and Stock CFDs enable speculation on market direction without asset ownership, they exhibit significant disparities:

Market scope: CFD Indices permit speculation on entire sectors or national economies, whereas Stock CFDs are confined to individual companies.

Trading timeframe: While many CFD Indices offer 24-hour trading, Stock CFDs typically adhere to exchange trading hours.

Volatility: CFD Indices frequently demonstrate lower price volatility compared to individual stocks, reflecting the broader market they represent.

What is the leverage available on CFD Indices?

Magno Fx offers a maximum leverage of up to 200x on all CFD Indices.
