IG Markets, the UK’s leading Contract for Difference (CFD) provider, has announced that it has further improved its pricing on a number of popular index contracts. Key reductions include the FTSE 100 and Germany 30 now trading in hours at a one point spread, with Wall Street trades at a two points spread.
CFD trading allows clients to trade on a wide range of markets without having to physically own the underlying instrument. Clients also have the flexibility to trade long or short, depending on which direction they believe the market will move. As a FTSE 250 company with almost 40 years trading history in the sector, IG Markets enables investors to trade with confidence.
Philip Adler, Managing Director of IG Markets (UK), commented: “As a company, we remain committed to innovation and ensuring our clients receive the best possible value. Cutting our index spreads means that clients can now get even better prices on our award winning PureDeal trading platform.
“We pride ourselves on quality customer service and as a listed company with a market capitalisation of almost £2bn, clients can trade with the utmost confidence.”
IG Markets clients can trade CFDs online, over the telephone, or via a range of mobile devices. In addition to having been confirmed as the UK’s most popular CFD provider in a recent study by ‘Investment Trends’, IG Markets also provides comprehensive training and education through its TradeSense programme. This is specifically designed to help those new to CFDs to understand the financial markets and risk management tools they have at their disposal.
