3. Perhaps, one of the most important aspects of your plan are the financial markets you are planning to trade. You can't specialise in every single market so it's important to learn your markets and research them. Be a specialist in your market of choice.

1. Regulation. Make sure your contracts for difference broker is regulated by FCA or other respected regulatory authority. Remember, you money could be at risk if you trade with a dodgy broker.
2. Competitiveness. Is your broker competitive enough when it comes to spreads and overnight financing charges? Remember, those charges will add up and drain your account so make sure you choose a solid broker.

When it comes to CFD or forex trading, it's important that you deal only with reputable and regulated brokers; there's no need to cut corners and hope for the best, just go with the best.
Where's what you're looking for:

1. How are the spreads? are you satisfied? Shop around as there are so many brokers to choose from. A bit of leg work will save you time and money.
2. Happy with the range of markets? That's where you really have to dig in and investigate. If your CFD or forex broker does not provide the markets you trade then what's the point even if they have low spreads?

Why is it that some CFD traders manage to make profit consistently when most of the retail traders lose money?
Are experienced traders better at research or sticking to the trading plan?
A few essential CFD trading tips in this thread.
#cfds #trading
cfdspy.com/tips/cfd-tips/ Image
1. Have a trading plan.
What is that you want to achieve? What instruments you want to trade? Do you set out your entrance and exit levels before you enter the trades? It's important to have a trading plan and stick to it no matter what.
#tradingplan #plan
2. Don't over-leverage.
Keep your leverage in check. If you have only enough money to risk 1 trade then you're definitely over-leveraging and just one bad trade will wipe you out. Ideally, you don't want to use more than 5% of your funds on any one trade.

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?
cfdspy.com/cfd-brokers/
#cfd #cfdbroker #trading #trader Image
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.
#CFD #investing #stockmarket
cfdspy.com/guide/who-trad… Image
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.
