Trading bitcoin derivatives

Trading bitcoin derivatives with us means that instead of owning bitcoin outright, you’ll be speculating on its price with CFDs. As a result, you’ll be able to take a position on bitcoin’s price rising by ‘going long’ or falling by ‘going short’. Here are other benefits of trading bitcoin derivatives with us:

  • Leverage and margin: CFDs are always traded with leverage, which means you’ll only have to put up a deposit – known as margin – to get full market exposure
  • Deep liquidity: thanks to our large client base, our bitcoin market is very liquid. This means you’re more likely to have your orders filled at your desired price – even if you deal in large sizes
  • Hedging: shorting with derivatives can be an effective way to hedge your portfolio and protect against market declines

The table below highlights the main benefits of CFD trading.
