Different Types of CFD

With equity CFDs, you can trade on thousands of shares listed on the major UK, US and European stock exchanges. All shares are quoted and traded in pence, US cents, Euro cents or the local market equivalent. CFDs give you the opportunity to invest in individual shares without investing in the physical share itself.

There are thousands to choose from and trading hours match the underlying market.

If you feel more confident investing across an investment sector rather than on just one company, CFD trading in sectors could be just what you are looking for.

With Halifax CFDs, sectors are made up of 350 companies. There are over 30 sectors to choose from, including: banks, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, oil and gas, media and photography.

You'll pay a flat fee of £15 when you trade a CFD in UK sectors. And, by trading on sectors instead of individual companies, you could benefit from trends which can be long-term and profitable. However your investments and any income from CFDs can go down as well as up.
