Easy, cost-effective access to a broad range of companies
Index CFDs provide easy, cost-effective access to a broad range of companies without needing to analyse individual stocks.

Approach to trading Index CFDs
Elections, political events, policy changes, GDP growth rates, employment figures, inflation data, and corporate earnings announcements can all impact the performance of index funds.
It’s important to understand these factors and incorporate them into your approach when trading index CFDs.
Understanding the risks
Leverage risk
Leverage trading magnifies both gains and losses. This means you can lose more than your initial capital, especially in fast-moving markets
No ownership of underlying asset
When trading CFDs, you do not own the underlying asset. As a result, you're not entitled to dividends, voting rights, or other shareholder benefits.
Spread risk
Although GO Markets offers competitive, exchange-like spreads, spreads may widen significantly during periods of high volatility or low liquidity. This can increase your trading costs and impact your trading outcomes.
Index CFD trading strategies
Technical analysis, fundamental analysis, and sentiment analysis can all be utilised when trading index CFDs.
Technical analysis involves studying charts and using indicators to identify trends and potential entry and exit points.
Fundamental analysis involves studying economic and political events that may affect the value of currencies.
Sentiment analysis involves studying the mood of the market and the views of other traders and investors.
