Risk warning and disclosure

Share CFDs gap on earnings and news; short positions can lose more than expected, and stops are not guaranteed.

This page is information, not personal advice. CFDs use leverage, which magnifies losses as well as gains; most retail accounts lose money, and past results say nothing about future ones. Spread figures are the minimums or averages the brokers publish themselves and widen in fast markets.
