The basics

What is indices trading?

An index measures the performance of a basket of stocks — for example, the S&P 500 tracks 500 large US companies. Index trading lets you take a view on a whole market at once, rather than picking individual shares.

With ProPrimeFX you trade index CFDs that mirror the live benchmark, going long or short depending on your outlook.

With ProPrimeFX you can trade:

  • US indices — S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, Dow Jones
  • European indices — DAX, FTSE 100, CAC 40
  • Asian & other benchmarks — Nikkei, ASX and more

How it works

How indices trading works

Index CFDs track the live value of a benchmark. You buy if you expect the index to rise, or sell if you expect it to fall — gaining or losing as the index moves.

Example: If you expect US tech to rally, you buy NAS100. If the index rises from 18,240 to 18,400, your long position profits.

Leverage magnifies both profits and losses — which is why risk management is essential.
