What is Index Trading?
Indices are a collection of stocks or securities that represent a particular segment of the financial market. In CFD trading, these are traded as contracts for difference (CFDs), allowing traders to track and respond to the price movements of the underlying index. This dynamic approach offers traders flexibility and adaptability, making indices trading an attractive and popular choice for investors looking to diversify their portfolios.
