Follow the world’s most popular indices, such as the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average to gain a more diversified and balanced exposure to the market they represent and benefit from overall market trends, rather than relying on the performance of individual CFD stocks.
Indices trading refers to buying and selling financial instruments that track the performance of a group of stocks or other financial assets, rather than individual securities.
An index is essentially a measurement of the performance of a particular market, and indices trading involves trading on the direction of that market by buying or selling derivatives based on the index.
For example, the S&P 500 index tracks the performance of the top 500 publicly traded companies in the United States.
By trading S&P 500 futures contracts, traders can trade on whether they believe the overall value of those companies will go up or down.
