What are indices?
An index is a way to track the performance of a big group of assets in a standardized manner. It is used to measure the performance of different securities bundled together, which all replicate a certain area of the market. The index can be broad-based like SP500 and Dow Jones, or there can also be more specialized indexes that only track a specific segment or industry.
What are CFD indices?
CFD indices or index CFDs are traded with leverage and margin, which means, you only need to commit to depositing a small initial investment to start the trade. Margin trading gives you a wider market exposure since your profit and losses are calculated according to the full-size position and not just the total funds you use for margin.
How to trade indices?
One of the best ways to trade indices is through Contract for Difference (CFDs) which allow you to profit from both rising and falling prices of the market. You can open a short position if you think the index will eventually fall or you can open a long position if you think the index will end up rising.
