Share CFD Trading FAQ
What is a Share CFD?
What is a Share CFD?
Shares represent units of ownership within a company. Shares are also known as stocks or equities. Dividend payments are common with some companies, a method of sharing company profits with shareholders. In addition to traditional share dealing, however, traders can access derivatives: trading instruments derived from the movement of an underlying share price.
Individual stock CFDs (contract for differences) fall under the umbrella of derivative products, an effective low-cost trading vehicle. While CFDs do not grant shareholder privileges, active CFD positions may receive a dividend if executed before the ex-dividend date.

Each investor owning shares of a company is also owning fragments of the company. A quite simple way to explain what a stock is is basically when a company divides itself into several shares and then it makes a part of these equities available to the public, at a price.

While shares represent units of ownership within a company Contracts for Difference (CFDs) allow traders to speculate on the future share price fluctuations of an underlying asset. Thus when trading CFDs traders do not physically own the underlying asset. CFDs are available for a range of underlying assets, such as shares, commodities, and foreign exchange, and indices.

The economic situation of countries, in addition to geopolitical risks and instability, can undoubtedly affect trade, financial flow, and consequently the share CFDs prices. In such situations the stock market price fluctuations can be excessively strong, creating opportunities for traders to generate returns investing on the foreign exchange but also excessive risks.
Thus, some well-performing companies offer more opportunities to traders due to their stable, smooth, and less volatile share price movement in the markets. Some of the top traded share CFDs represent the trending industries.
Technology companies such as Tesla Inc, Apple, Microsoft, and Facebook are some of the trader’s favorite shares to trade according to Investing.com. While some of the biotech representatives that have entered the top traded list of the global markets are Moderna, Pfizer, and Johnson & Johnson.
