  • Trade Bond CFDs with flexible trade sizes, high leverage and tight spreads

Bond CFDs provide a cost-efficient way for investors to trade on the evolution of the political risk that has overshadowed financial markets in the recent past.

Thanks to low margin requirements and small minimum trade sizes, Bond CFDs make it easy to hedge an existing cash bond portfolio or trade directionally on the evolution of interest rates.

Trade Bond CFDs today

With a wide range of European Government Bonds available as CFDs, you can easily trade the relative evolution of long-term interest rates between Germany, France and Italy (long one country’s Bond CFD whilst short another country’s Bond CFD).

For added simplicity, all trading commissions are included in the spread and eligible cash Bonds and Stocks can be used as margin collateral.

Transparent pricing and flexible trade sizes

Bond CFDs are based on the price of Futures Contract. You can trade without fees or commission – instead, a small mark-up is added to the spread of the Future.

The minimum trade size is only 50x the index, compared to 1,000x included in 1 lot of the Future.

What’s more, you can increase your trade size by increments of 1 index with the CFD if you wish, instead of 1,000 with the Futures Contract.

Bond CFD​ ​Spread mark-up ​Min trade size
​French OAT (10y) ​0.05 ​50 indices
Italian BTP (10y)​ 0.05​ 50 indices​
German Bund (10y)​ 0.03​ 50 indices​
German Bobl (5y)​ 0.03​ 50 indices​
German Schatz (2y)​ 0.015​ 50 indices​
