CFD, or Contract for Difference, is a type of financial instrument that allows traders to speculate on the price movements of various markets — including stocks, currencies, commodities, and indices — without actually owning the underlying assets.
Yes, CFDs are traded using leverage. This means you can gain full market exposure by depositing only a fraction of the total trade value. While this amplifies potential profits, it also increases the risk of losses, so proper risk management is key.
CFD trading with Xelans Markets opens the door to a wide selection of instruments, from global equities and commodities to ETFs, indices, and government bonds — all from a single platform.
While holding a long position in a CFD on a dividend-paying stock, you'll receive a dividend adjustment. If you’re short on the position, the equivalent value is deducted from your account. This ensures fair pricing during corporate actions.
At Xelans Markets, trading CFDs is simple. Pick your preferred asset, analyze its market direction, and decide whether to go long or short. Set your trade size, apply risk controls like stop-loss orders, execute the trade, and actively monitor your position from your account dashboard.
