No, anyone can trade online but it’s important to understand the risk involved with trading. CFDs are complex instruments that come with leverage, which can magnify losses as much as profit. We believe that having the right educational resources, understanding risk management and using a demo account can help anybody trade responsibly.

Although we provide customer support 24/6, Equiti is an execution-only broker and does not provide any advisory management or investment advice. We encourage all levels of traders to seek professional advice and utilise risk management.

Arguably the most popular trading tool for reducing risk, stop loss orders are designed to limit loss on a security position that’s made an unfavourable move. When you place a stop-loss order with a broker, you’re requesting to close the position once the instrument reaches a certain price. This is helpful as it means your trades need less monitoring and can help to limit losses, particularly in volatile markets.

Please note that a stop-loss is not a guarantee because positions may be affected by price gaps over market closures, data release or other economic factors.

Trading CFDs is based on the speculation that the value of one asset will increase relative to another, which creates potential to maximise returns. However, there’s no guaranteed strategy or market that will always deliver profit. If your current broker says otherwise, check if they’re regulated!

Investing in global markets by purchasing forex, commodities, ETFs or other CFD products will free up your capital and give you the opportunity to profit - but we always encourage our clients to risk only what they can afford to lose. Markets are known to be unpredictable, which means both losses and profits can equally increase.

Spreads are measured in pips and show the difference between the buy and sell price. In trading, the ‘ask price’ (or ‘offer price’) means the price you’d like to buy at, and the ‘bid price’ is what you’d like to sell at. In practice, if EURUSD has a bid price of 1.55310 and an ask price of 1.55320, the spread would be 1 pip.

A pip, short for ‘point in percentage’, is a very small measure of change in a currency pair in the forex market. It can be measured in terms of the quote or the underlying currency. A pip is a standardised unit for the smallest amount by which a currency quote can change. It is usually 0.0001 and for JPY-pairs it’s usually 0.01. A fractional pip or point is equivalent to 1/10 of a pip. There are 10 points to every 1 pip.

We offer leverage through the use of margins, where we provide borrowed funds from our deep liquidity pool to increase your trading position. This means traders can increase their market exposure by paying a fraction of their initial investment (their deposit). In practice, you can invest $10 and trade with $200 - allowing for higher potential gains AND losses. Make sure you understand your risk appetite. Try to minimise your losses by using stop loss tools or other risk management strategies - or experiment with leverage on our risk-free demo if you haven’t traded with it before.

CFD trading (or “Contract for Difference” trading) allows you to open positions on the price performance of an asset - without owning the asset directly. This means you have the flexibility to choose whether you think something’s value will go up or down.

Trading products are assets that you can trade online via a broker, such as FX, shares, commodities and indices. Online trading generally refers to buying and selling OTC securities (or ‘Over The Counter' trading instruments) via the internet or other electronic means - such as wireless access or touch-tone telephones. In most cases, customers access a brokerage firm's Client Portal (or website) through their regular Internet Service Provider. Once there, customers may consult provided information, monitor activity and place or close orders by logging into their personal, secure accounts.

FX CFDs are contracts that are used to trade on currency pairs with added leverage. Online traders often choose CFDs as you can speculate on the rise or fall of an FX pair’s value - without directly owning it. “Forex” stands for “foreign exchange” (or currency pairs) and “CFDs” stands for “Contract for Differences”.

Forex (‘foreign exchange’ or ‘fx’) describes trading currencies in pairs, like EURUSD, on a decentralised over-the-counter global market. This allows traders to potentially profit from the increased (or decreased) value of a country’s currency in comparison to another. Each currency has an official abbreviation - in this case, EUR means ‘Euro’ & USD means ‘United States Dollar’.

When trading forex online, your base currency is shown first (here as EUR) and is followed by the quote currency (here as USD). The values of these currencies change quickly which is reflected in the spread, i.e., the difference between the bid & ask price.

You can trade online on the performance of currency pairs by opening a single position on a secure trading platform.

CFD trading, or "Contract for Difference" trading, allows you to open positions on the price performance of an asset without owning the asset directly. This means you have the flexibility to choose whether you think something's value will go up or down.

However, pure forex trading involves physically exchanging a currency pair for the value of another currency.

At Equiti, we offer FX CFD trading, which enables you to speculate on the price of a currency pair without directly owning it.

See forex pair CFDs

A pip, short for ‘point in percentage’, is a very small measure of change in the value of a currency pair on the foreign exchange (forex) online market. It can be measured in terms of the quote or the underlying currency. It is a standardised unit for the smallest amount by which a currency quote can change, which is usually $0.0001 for USD-related currency pairs. A fractional pip or point is equivalent to 1/10 of a pip and there are 10 points to every 1 pip.

When trading forex, spreads with low pips (0.0 pip spreads) indicate that a product is traded very frequently but pips can also be used for risk management tools like Stop Loss orders.

Knowing your currency pair’s pip value allows you to manage your risk exposure, and potentially make the same profit across pairs. For example, if your Stop Loss equals 50 pips, the Take Profit could be 100-150 pips - as many think that having a SL/TP ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 is a good benchmark.

A group or basket of stocks are called an ‘index’ or ‘indices’. Indices are a measurement of the value (and pricing) of a specific section of the stock market, which allow traders to speculate on entire sectors at once. Grouping selected stocks or assets into an index creates a cost-effective mechanism for trading on a sector’s performance - i.e., opening a single position to trade on the entire UK100 - which tracks the 100 largest companies on the London Stock Exchange (LSE).

You can also trade on future indices like the USD index which tracks the performance of USD weighted against major currencies from across the world.

We offer commission-free rolling major & minor stock market indices from around the world including AUS200 (Australia roll), China50, EU50 (Europe roll), DE40 (Germany roll), FR40 (France roll), HK50 (Hong Kong roll), India50, JP225 (Japan roll), ES35 (Spain roll), UK100 (United Kingdom roll) and US rolls like US500, UT100 and US30.

CFDs on shares (also known as CFD stock trading) are contracts that allow traders to speculate on the rise or fall of a company’s share price with leverage - without owning any shares directly. “CFDs” are a short way of saying “Contract for Differences” and they are a popular choice for traders looking to speculate on the rise and fall of the share prices (i.e., prices that move a lot). Shares are also known as ‘stocks’ or ‘equities’.

Share CFDs

CFD share trading (also known as ‘equities’ or ‘stock market trading’) means buying and selling CFDs on the shares of companies listed on a stock exchange to make a profit. Companies will list their shares to raise immediate funds, and traders purchase share CFDs to make a profit on the outcome of a company’s future - without directly owning the share. This gives traders the availability to speculate on price action without the responsibility of being a direct shareholder.

Share CFDs are available for a wide variety of industries — so you can tap into your knowledge of specific businesses or diversify your portfolio. We offer hundreds of shares CFDs from the US, UK & EU – including major sectors like Technology, Financial, Healthcare and Retail.

Commodity CFDs are an efficient way to trade on the rising (or falling) prices of raw materials like gold, oil, and natural gas - without owning the asset directly.

This means you can trade on the price movements or performance of commodities without needing to own them outright - which allows you to go long or short and potentially benefit from either rising or falling markets.

We offer both rolling and future contracts on our commodity CFDs.

See commodity CFDs

Commodity (or ‘commodities’) CFD trading is possibly the oldest form of CFD trading – especially as futures. They allow you to trade on the performance of commodities instead of directly owning the assets.

Commodity CFDs refer to buying, selling and trading on the performance of commodities that are mined or drilled (such as oil, gold & gas) and soft commodities that are harvested (such as coffee & sugar).

Major commodity groups include: Precious Metals (like gold, silver and palladium), agriculture (like coffee and cocoa), and energies (like Brent Crude oil, WTI oil and natural gas).

See commodity CFDs

We offer CFDs on gold, silver and more on our Commodities page. Precious metals such as gold and silver can be considered one of the first ever traded commodities. Investors and traders generally view gold as a safe haven during economic, political or social uncertainty due to their relatively stable demand and the world’s limited supply.

See Precious Metal CFDs

The units of measure for precious metals are troy ounces. Please refer to the market specifications for precious metals to see the contract sizes for precious metals (like gold) against the US dollar.

Read our Contract Expiry Dates

A rolling CFD is a CFD that is automatically extended (or ‘rolled’) to the next trading day (or value date). Unlike a futures CFD, which has a fixed expiry date, a rolling CFD position remains open until the client closes their position or the position is liquidated. A rolling commodity CFD works in the same way, such as our Rolling WTI Oil CFD which we call ‘USOILRoll’.

All rolling CFD positions left open at 17:00 (New York time) will be rolled over to a new value date. The roll charge is calculated by interpolating between the near and far month futures, and then adding our fees if they apply. Some rolling CFDs may pay a swap if there is a positive value in the instrument specification on our trading platforms - meaning that the client is paid to hold their position on the market overnight, while others charge swaps.

Trade future CFDs to speculate or hedge on the price direction of a security, a commodity or other financial instruments. By purchasing a futures contract, the buyer agrees to buy an asset at a predetermined price at a specified time in the future.

When trading a futures CFD you are speculating on the price of that futures contract.

ETF stands for Exchange-traded fund and they’re a group of stock from a particular sector, such as tech or energy.

A CFD is a contract for difference so you can trade on the price movement of an ETF but you don’t own the underlying asset. ETF CFD traders speculate on the price movement (up or down) of the ETF and profit if their prediction is correct.

Trading an ETF CFD has a few advantages like using leverage and trading in real-time during market hours. You can also potentially ‘sell short’ at a profit if you think the price will fall.

Equiti offers ETF CFDs to trade. Like the other products we offer, you can choose the ETF CFD you wish to trade and place a buy or sell order with us. Visit our ETF page to see what ETFs you can trade.

Using a leverage allows you to trade ETF CFDs with more exposure than the amount you put in. Leverage boosts your trading power by using only a fraction of the position's cost. For example, if you add $100 with leverage, you can open a position worth $2000. Always remember that leverage works both ways so your losses can be equally greater too.

It’s important to remember that leveraged products amplify losses as well as profits. Always manage your risk appetite responsibly and use our risk management tools and strategies to help prevent potential losses.

When you trade a CFD, you don’t own the underlying asset, you just trade on the price movement you speculate on.

All ETF CFDs are priced on the underlying asset. The price of an ETF CFD is determined by the bid and ask prices and is influenced by factors such as supply and demand, market conditions and news events.
