About This Webinar

In this category, the theme is ‘Trading contracts for difference (CFDs)’.CFDs are ways of speculating on financial markets that does not require the physical buying and selling of any underlying assets and financial instruments. CFD trading provides a platform to you to speculate on the moving up or declining prices of rapidly-moving global financial markets (or instruments) such as shares, indices, commodities, currencies, crypto currencies, bonds and rates, ETFs, Options and treasuries. CFD trading can be also used to hedge an existing physical portfolio.

Some of the benefits of CFD trading are that you can trade on margin, and you can go short (sell) if you think prices will go down or go long (buy) if you think prices will rise. CFDs are tax efficient in some countries.

If you are in your final year of any undergraduate degree program then you are eligible to participate on the above theme on CFDs.
