Indices trading offers a diversified way to trade the movements of the global equity markets without the need to identify, trade or directly own any specific stocks or group of stocks.

For many traders, it means you can focus your efforts on a few index CFDs as opposed to having to analyse hundreds of stocks in order to make a trading decision.

When you trade Index CFDs with Swisssborg, you’re given access to the Cash CFD, which means you’re simply trading on the movement of the index’s prices rather than purchasing the underlying futures contract. This allows you to trade in small contract sizes, which is perfect for those who are just starting out with Indices trading.

If you’re looking to test an Index CFD trading system live on MT4 & MT5, you can do so using a live trading account and test your system from as little as $0.10 per point movement.

Trade Your Preferred Index CFDs both Long and Short

Another great advantage of trading Index CFDs is the ability to go both long and short. When you are looking to benefit from the index moving higher it means you will be trading long and when you are looking to benefit from the index falling, it means you will be trading short.

Below is the full list of the global Indices you get access to via our MetaTrader 4 Indices trading platform. Please note that all Indices offered are provided as a CFD.

Swisssborg will automatically roll any open positions in Futures CFD contracts which will result in paying the spread (value of ASK – BID price) upon the roll. The rollover arises when the underlying instrument associated with a CFD is due for expiry and Swisssborg begins to price the CFD from the next available futures contract. As the next dated futures contract trades at either a discount or a premium to the expiring futures contract, your trading account will be credited or debited the difference between the closing price of the expiring contract and the opening price of the new contract, depending on your net exposure of the rolled instrument. Swisssborg will generally roll futures contracts within 72 business hours of the current contract expiry date in order to avoid low liquidity and larger spreads as the current futures contract approaches expiry.
