CONTRACT FOR DIFFERENCE (CFDs)

 

CFDs at RST CAPITAL

Contracts for Difference (CFDs) are derivative products empowering the trader to take short and long positions on the underlying instruments. CFDs are margin-traded as well, so that a serious investor can gear his portfolio positions to actively take advantage of market movements.

Choose from among 20 stock exchanges (3000 individual equity instruments) and 11 stock indices (where you take a long or short position on the movement of the entire index!). You may also trade CFDs on 11 stock indices. Our low margin requirements allow up to 20x gearing for investments in stock indices. Use our built-in technical analysis and trend-tracking tools to plan your investment strategies.

DIRECT MARKET ACCESS (DMA) CFDs

Direct Market Access provides direct access to the exchange order book and allows you to place trades directly around the live market (yellow) price.

With DMA CFDs you can:

  • Trade at the current market price when the order hits the market (market orders)
  • Place orders at the displayed yellow price or better
  • Join the current yellow price to buy at the Bid price or sell at the Offer price

Trading CFDs on live market prices requires an exchange subscription agreement for each of the exchanges you want to trade. There is also a ticket fee for DMA CFDs.

See your CFD trading conditions for details.

Please discuss all trading fees and subscriptions with your financial advisor.

 

IN-DEPTH MARKET INSIGHT

For CFD Direct Market Access investors, you can also view Level 2 market depth for the exchanges with whom you have a DMA agreement. Market Depth displays the five best bid and ask prices directly in the CFD trade module, allowing you to see where the market is going before you make your trading decisions.
