Trade CFDs on thousands of global shares, as well as ETFs – including Tesla, Amazon, Apple, Meta and the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY).
Shares and ETFs trading is the process of buying and selling individual company stocks or baskets of assets (such as ETFs), in the hope of benefitting from price fluctuations.
You can buy and sell shares or ETFs directly on a stock exchange, or trade over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives such as CFDs based on their price.
Traders generally aim to capitalise on short-term market moves. They may buy shares or ETFs they expect to go up, hold them briefly and then sell once the market rises. That differs from traditional investing, which usually involves buying and holding assets for the long term. As with all trading and investment products, there is always the possibility of loss as well as gain.
Shares and ETFs are among the most popular markets to trade. Shares offer exposure to a single company’s performance, while ETFs track a broader selection of assets – from sectors and indices to commodities and bonds – in a single product.
Trading on shares and ETFs with CFDs gives you the opportunity to go short as well as long, without having to physically buy the underlying asset.
You can also access leverage to amplify your exposure. This can magnify your profits but also your losses, as both will be based on the full value of the position.
We offer CFD trading on over 4,250 global shares and ETFs, giving you exposure to their price movements without needing to buy them outright.
We also offer extended hours on key US stocks, so you can trade on price movements around earnings announcements that are typically released after the market closes.
Identify potential entry and exit points with our smart, intuitive charting tools, and set price alerts to notify you of significant market moves. Protect yourself against adverse price swings with our range of risk-management tools, including trailing stops, which lock in gains while limiting losses.*

This application is perfect.. simple, easy to use, run smoothly and fast and it has an accurate graphics.. be careful to use only one credit card and one bank account to prevent any withdrawal problem.. overnight fees and spread variation will be repaid for you by the next month.. I used many application but this is the best one
I’d been paper trading for 2yrs now, went live and this platform is easy for beginners to understand and navigate all important tools to execute all that I learned. Earning now!
The best trading company I've found so far and so easy to use.
User friendly app & interface and good support team. Funds transfer ease & Leverage is an advantage but crypto is highly risky be responsible of your loss limits and risks appetite.
