How indices trading works.
A stock index tracks a basket of shares, such as the largest companies in a country. Trading an index CFD lets you take a view on a whole market with one position, instead of choosing individual companies.
- US indices such as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100
- European indices such as the DAX and the FTSE 100
- Asia-Pacific indices such as the Nikkei 225
