What is leveraged trading?
The CMC Markets platform is a derivative-trading platform allowing traders to speculate on instruments found within the underlying index, stock, commodity & currency markets. A key feature and benefit of trading leveraged products is that you only have to put down a small deposit for a much larger market exposure, and as such there is the potential to magnify profits, as well as losses, which can exceed deposits.
When you trade derivatives, you don’t buy or sell the underlying asset or product. Instead, you speculate on whether the price of that product will rise or fall. For every point the price moves in your favour, you gain multiples of the number of units you have bought or sold. Similarly, for every point the price moves against you, you make a loss.
