What is Indices Trading and How Do Index CFDs Work

Indices trading lets you speculate on the performance of a group of stocks listed on a single exchange. An index measures the combined price movement of its components. For example, the S&P 500 tracks 500 of the largest US companies. Instead of buying individual shares, you trade the overall market direction through a single instrument.

With Trade Vortex, you can trade global Indices as CFDs with competitive spreads and fast order execution.

US Stock Indices

The S&P 500, Dow Jones 30, and Nasdaq 100 are the most traded US indices. They reflect the health of the American stock market and economy.

European Indices

Trade the FTSE 100 from London, DAX 40 from Germany, and CAC 40 from France. European indices offer strong intraday volatility.

Asian Market Indices

The Nikkei 225 and Hang Seng index track major Asian markets. They offer trading opportunities during the Asian session.
