Independent Investor Says Growth In CFD Trade Down To Flexibility

LONDON, Jan. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Online financial trading education site Independent Investor has said that it believes the rise in popularity of contracts for difference across markets over the last decade is the result of the heightened flexibility and leverage portion available to traders, making CFDs a more financially viable trading choice than other competing instruments.

CFDs allow traders to take exposure on the plus and negative sides of markets with ease, and the capital barriers to entering CFD trades are often comparatively lower than in cash markets, or in alternative investment types. Furthermore, the high degrees of leverage available for those trading CFDs mean they deliver greater returns on a like-for-like basis than other transaction types.

Allowing traders to do what they want more readily across their portfolio and providing the opportunity for more ample gains is what has helped propel CFD trading into the public consciousness, according to Independentinvestor.com, who believe the stratospheric rise of CFDs will only continue with time.

Alex Johnson, a spokesperson for Independent Investor, said that the growth in CFDs as an instrument represents their resounding success, in providing traders with better returns and greater flexibility in how they manage and structure their portfolio.

"CFDs have exploded out of all proportions to become one of the most heavily traded financial instruments around. Over the last decade, an increasing number of traders have been turned on to the idea of trading contracts for difference, as a means of introducing greater flexibility into their trading portfolio and ramping up the available gains from trading in any specific market. And with CFDs now becoming more competitive than ever to trade, their growth shows no sign of stopping anytime soon."

"At Independentinvestor.com, we have extensive experience in trading CFDs, and we understand the advantages, and indeed the drawbacks, trading these instruments can bring. Our educational materials and CFD resource section is aimed at helping traders looking to brush up on their CFD trading skills find the information they need to make a marked improvement to their trading outcomes."
