CFDs are complex instruments. Leverage can magnify gains and losses, and you may lose your entire invested capital.
Know the product
Trade the price movement. Not the metal.
A gold CFD lets you take a position on changes in the XAU/USD price without owning physical gold. That flexibility comes with material risk, especially when leverage is used.
