Stock Trading

Trade stocks online with Saxo Bank

Trading Stocks online with Saxo Bank is simple and convenient with 12,000 equities from over 20 of the world’s major stock exchanges accessible through Saxo Bank’s trading platforms. Investors can trade Stocks online from the US markets to exchanges in Europe, Asia and Australia directly from a single account. Also available are Contracts for Difference (CFD trading), which are much like trading Stocks on leverage, with the added ability of short selling.

Using Stock positions as collateral

Saxo Bank allows individuals to reuse up to 60% of their Stock investments as collateral for margin-based trading. For example, if a trader has Stocks with a value of USD 10,000, they can use USD 6,000 of this collateral for trading Forex or CFDs. The re-use of collateral depends on the risk rating of the Stock.

Have you tried CFD trading?

For short-term and intraday stock traders, Saxo Bank would also like to highlight Contracts for Difference or CFD trading. CFDs are Stock derivatives that offer a number of important benefits to intraday investors including trading on live prices, margin trading to leverage investments and easy short selling.
