Contracts for Difference Education
Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are a financial instrument that has been gaining popularity over the last few years. Conceived in the early 80's and termed an 'equity swap', CFDs are an agreement between the buyer and the seller that the seller will pay the buyer any difference between the value of the asset at the time of entering into the contract and the value at the end of the contract. (Or receive money if the difference is negative.)
Before you trade in Contracts for Difference (CFDs), you need to know what you are doing. Education is the most important tool you can own, because when you're leveraged 10:1 it's your money on the line and whilst you can make substantial returns, you can lose it just as quickly if you don't know how to trade it.
