What are the risks involved in trading CFDs?

Any trading activity is subject to the risk of the asset’s price moving against you, causing you to lose the funds in your trading account (including unrealised profits and losses from open positions).

Since CFDs are leveraged, your exposure to the underlying asset increases, and your potential gains and losses are magnified. In addition, periods of volatility may cause the instrument’s price to move rapidly and cause the closure of your position due to a margin call.

It is essential to understand that every transaction entails risk and that you should always monitor your positions closely. Please refer to our ‘Risk Disclosure’ document for a detailed description of the risks involved.
