The basics of trading in 7 short bites
Trading is no longer just for the 2%.
Here are the basics of trading with Unison Global Markets in 7 short bites.
Trading, not investing.
We allow you to trade the world’s biggest and most popular markets through contracts for difference (CFDs). CFDs are a type of derivative, meaning you do not buy the underlying asset itself. Instead, you buy or sell units of a given financial instrument depending on whether you think the underlying price will rise or fall.
Leverage: what is it and how do I use it?
CFDs are also leveraged, which means you are able to take on a bigger position with a smaller amount of initial capital. In other words, you only put down a deposit of the value of your trade and borrow the remainder from your broker.
Leveraged trading is also referred to as trading on margin. This is because the funds required to open and maintain a position – known as the margin – are only a faction of the total trade size.
