Why to trade shares?

Traders opt for trading shares to take advantage of their price movements in the long-term. When trading CFD shares, traders have more chances to profit because they can go long or short (buy and sell). At VT Markets, they can also trade with leverage, which allows them to gain access to larger sums of capital. This, however, can heighten profits or losses and should be used wisely.

What are CFD Shares?

When you trade shares, you don’t exactly own a piece of the company, but make an agreement with the broker to pay or receive the price difference between the value of an asset when the contract is opened and closed. This is known as CFD or Contracts for Difference.Click here to open an account and become a VT Markets trader.
