Risk Warning: Trading Contracts for Difference (CFDs) involves a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all traders. The use of leverage magnifies both potential profits and losses, meaning you could incur losses greater than your initial deposit. It is important to understand the risks involved and assess whether you can afford to lose your invested capital. When trading CFDs, you do not own the underlying assets and have no rights to them.
