ETFs CFDs Trading at Ecxmarket

ETF CFDs offer several advantages that have increased their popularity among day traders:

• Spread out your potential risks or rewards – you can trade an entire market as though it were a single stock or commodity.
• Find additional trading opportunities – ETFs are designed to give you exposure to diverse markets/sectors within capital markets. This means you can diversify your portfolio without the need for a large amount of capital.
• Enjoy tight spreads with zero commissions for making a deposit and opening/closing a trade. In addition, gain unlimited access to real-time ETF quotes charts and quotes with the Ecxmarket platform.

An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is a financial instrument that tracks (and sometimes amplifies) the market price of the top companies within a specific financial sector, such as aerospace, banking, energy, technology, or commodity, such as oil, natural gas, gold or lithium.

Trading ETFs with leverage allows you to multiply the size of a trade through the use of borrowed capital. As such, you can increase the potential profit or loss to be realised from the trade. Ecxmarket’s available leverage for ETFs CFDs is 1:100.
