Stock indices provide a simple but effective way to trade overall economic performance of a specific country. Stock indices can fluctuate significantly in price due to various technical and fundamental factors, and Swift Expert Trade enables traders to profit from both falling and rising markets with an array of different trading tools and charting software.
Margin trading is a way to trade indices that allows the trader to essentially borrow funds from the platform to increase their trade by a certain amount. Such leveraged trade will only require to deposit a small percentage of the total value of a position - margin.
This means that clients of Swift Expert Trade can trade an amount higher than they deposit, which can then potentially lead to returns that are much higher than would have been with just the initial capital. Note, that leveraged products, such as CFDs, magnify your potential profit – but also your potential loss.
For example, if a trader opens a short position on the S&P 500 and it falls 10%, using 5x leverage the same drop becomes a 50% profit. A similar spot trade without leverage would result in only 10% profit.
Disclaimer: Margin trading also comes with inherent risks if the position moves against the trade. You should never utilize 100% leverage and never invest more than you can afford to lose.
