Contracts for Difference (CFDs) provide a trader with full exposure to an underlying stock for a fraction of the cost. The holder of the CFD does not own the underlying asset, but enters into a contract to exchange the difference in the value of the underlying asset when the contract is closed.

Why Trade CFDs  

• The ability to go 'short':  CFDs allow you to sell shares you don't own, just as easily as buying shares. This enables you to benefit from falling share prices.
• Leverage: CFDs enable you to obtain full exposure to a share for a fraction of the cost
• Simplicity:  CFDs mirror the price of the underlying instrument
• Price: Trade $100,000 worth of stock for $66
• Hedging:  CFDs allow you to employ more advanced strategies such as hedging your existing share portfolio.
• Dividends:  When you hold a long CFD position over an ex-dividend date, you receive the dividend into your trading account that day.
