Currency Trading

With more than $6 trillion in daily trading volume, the foreign exchange (forex) market is the most profitable market in the world. Currencies trade against each other as exchange rate pairs; the EUR/USD is a currency pair for trading the Euro against the US dollar. If the US Dollar drops due to inflation or politic issues, the Euro will rise. Conversely, if the US economy sees a boom, the dollar rises and other paired currencies will drop. Due to the worldwide reach of trade, commerce, and finance, forex markets are typically the largest and most liquid assets in the world. Forex markets exist as spot (cash) markets as well as offering forwards futures, options, and currency swaps. Trade the majors including the euro and the U.S. dollar or get access to opportunities in emerging economies such as the South African rand.

Stocks Trading

Trading stocks online with CMTrading allows clients to take advantage of buying and selling opportunities in their favourite global brands. Stocks represent ownership/equity in a company. This gives shareholders voting rights as well as a residual claim on corporate earnings in the form of capital gains and dividends. Traders buy and sell shares in a public market such as the New York Stock exchange. Share prices are set by supply and demand; the more people buy a stock, the higher its price goes. The stock market is great for those able to do their homework and follow a company’s financials; remember, a good trader can profit regardless of whether the markets are dropping or rising. Listing on exchanges may provide companies with liquidity and the ability to raise capital but it can also mean higher costs and increased regulation. Trade the US tech giants such as Facebook, Amazon, Apple and Google with favourable trading conditions, powerful leverage, and no commissions.

Indices Trading

CMTrading clients get access to a diverse range of global indices across the technology, financial and industrial sectors. Indices are a measurement of the price performance of a group of shares within an exchange. The FTSE 100 tracks the 100 largest companies on the London Stock Exchange and similarly, the DOW Jones tracks the top 30 companies in America. Trading indices enable you to get exposure to an entire economy or sector within an index. Traders speculate on the price of indices rising or falling without taking ownership of the underlying assets within. Indices are a highly liquid market to trade, and with more trading hours than most other markets. This means more exposure to potential opportunities. Optimize your trading strategy by eliminating individual asset risk by diversifying your trading portfolio with the Dow Jones, JSE, FTSE 100 and more.

Cryptocurrency Trading

The tremendous volatility of the cryptocurrency market can be apprehensive for conservative investors. However, retail traders and speculators can harness the power of the market’s rapid intraday fluctuations with our risk-management tools and maximize their returns. A cryptocurrency is a form of digital asset based on a network distributed across a large number of computers/servers. This decentralized structure allows them to exist outside the control of governments and regulatory authorities. The advantages of cryptocurrencies include cheaper and quicker money transfers. The decentralized systems behind them mean that they do not collapse at a single point of failure. Blockchain and related technology is already proving to be a disruptor to many industries, including finance and banking. Some countries have adopted Bitcoin as a form of legal tender and many companies are accepting cryptos as forms of payments for goods.

Commodities Trading

Gold, silver, oil, and even coffee and sugar are some of the most popular tradable markets under CMTrading’s offering. Commodities that are traded are typically sorted into four categories broad categories – metal, energy, livestock, and agricultural. The two biggest sectors are metal (gold) and energy (oil). For traders, commodities are a fantastic way to diversify their portfolios beyond traditional securities. Commodities govern all aspects of trade and as such are prone to volatility including political (i.e. War) and environmental (adverse weather) conditions. Commodities are known to be risky because the market is prone to supply and demand fluctuations. If for example a conflict breaks out affecting oil-producing nations, the price of oil will skyrocket. If economies receive huge government stimulus, currencies will gain in power and gold will drop. Commodities are a great for those able to trade the news and spot trends. Take advantage of the opportunities available in precious metals, energies, and agricultural commodities to maximize your trading performance.
