What is CFD trading?
A Contract for Difference, or CFD for short, is a form of derivative trading. It’s a financial contract between two parties that takes its value from the price of an underlying asset.
A CFD allows you to speculate and potentially profit from changes in the asset’s price - both increases and decreases, depending on your position - without owning the asset itself.

How to trade CFDs with Alpari
Choose your instrument

Choose your position
One of the advantages of trading CFDs is being able to potentially benefit whether the market is rising or falling.
You can enter a CFD to go long (buy) if you believe that the price of the asset will increase or go short (sell) if you think the price will decrease.
Choose your size
The size of your position you choose to open will depend on your personal trading strategy and goals.
Check the contract specifications for your asset to determine the contract size and minimum lot size before placing your CFD trade.
