This is what you should know about CFDs

This is what you should know about CFDs

CFDs (Contracts for Difference) are financial derivative products, which can be used to speculate on the price movements of underlying assets such as stocks, indices, currencies, and commodities.

CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 65% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

      Extended Trading Hours
      Extended Trading Hours

      Trade on your time with US extended hours trading

      Trade on your time with US extended hours trading

      Trade US CFDs on single stocks 2.5 hours before the market opens to 1 hour after the market closes. React quickly to breaking news and earnings announcements, and manage risk in real time when markets move outside of regular hours trading.

      Pre-market and after-hours trading sessions refer to the time leading up to and following an exchange’s formal opening hours.

      Saxo offers pre-market and after-hours trading access to the major US exchanges, including New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, American Stock Exchange and Bats BZX.

      Most stocks listed on these exchanges are eligible for pre-market and after-hours trading, however their availability is determined by the order volume.

      Pre-market and after-hours trading lets you react to events happening outside of the exchange’s opening hours. Financial earnings reports, company news and events in other time zones often take place when the main exchange is closed.

      You should also be aware that trading pre-market and after-hours comes with additional volatility and larger price movements for many securities, in part due to lower liquidity in the market. You can read more about the risks associated with trading during extended hours here.

      Yes, all Saxo clients have access to pre-market and after-hours trading through all our trading platforms. Once your account is active, you can enable and disable extended hours trading directly in the platform settings.
