Risk management

If you would like to add a guaranteed stop to your position, then a limited risk premium will be added to the spread, according to the market you are trading.

For example, the limited risk premium for a FTSE® 100 trade is 3 points, which means the overall spread you would pay for a FTSE® 100 trade would be 4 points (the basic 1-point spread plus the 3-point limited risk premium).

CFDs are leveraged products. CFD trading may not be suitable for everyone and can result in losses that exceed your initial deposit, so please ensure that you fully understand the risks involved.
