There's a lot of confusion about what Contracts For Difference are and what they are not.
CFDs offer their benefits and they have the disadvantages but it's important to understand them.

CFDs are often confused with options.
First of all options and binary options are two very different things, it's important to know the difference.
As for the CFDs vs options - cfdspy.com/guide/cfds-vs-…
What about share trading and contracts for difference? There's no simple answer there and thus one has not understand the difference.
Remember, CFDs have overnight financing charges.

Currently, there are over 100 forex and CFD brokers on the market, all with their offerings and trading platforms. So how do you find a great broker? What to look for and what what providers to avoid?

Regulation. Make sure your CFD broker is regulated by some prominent regulator such as FCA (UK), ASIC (Australia), Cysec (Cyprus), or FSB (South Africa), your CFD provider should be regulated by at least one of those regulators.
Avoid unregulated brokers at all costs.
Range of markets. With so many CFD trading companies, you are spoiled with choices and have the right to go for a broker which offers all the financial markets you want to trade but remember, just because a brokerage offers over 10k markets doesn't mean it's the best.

When it comes to financial markets and CFD trading, it makes you wonder how some traders manage to consistently make profit while so many around fail miserably.
This thread looks into what successful CFD traders have in common.

Successful traders tend to specialise and know their traded markets upside down, just think of hedge funds, each fund specialises in 1 particular market and thoroughly researches it.
Know your market

Manage the risk. CFDs and other leveraged products are very risky and thus should be treated as such. Never underestimate the risks and tread with caution. Risk management should be high on your agenda if you want to consistently make money on the financial markets.

We keep talking about the benefits of Contracts For Difference (CFDs) but barely ever mention the risks associated with them.
So we decided to correct the mistake and answer 3 questions in this thread:
1. Is leverage good?
2. Are CFDs risky?
3. Can I easily make money with CFDs? Image
Is leverage good?
You will read on many websites that leverage is a double edged sword. It means it can bring you good profits and CAUSE BIG LOSSES.
You have to make sure you keep the leverage in check and learn how to use it to your advantage.

Are CFDs risky?
A simple answer is YES. CFD trading is risky.
If you want to see the proof then visit any CFD broker and you'll see that on average over 70% of accounts lose money. Thus more traders lose money than gain.
