What is a share?
A share is a security that represents the ownership of a fraction of a company. As a result, the owner of the share is entitled to a share of the assets and profits of the corporation equal to the proportion of shares he owns. A share is therefore a form of security that indicates that the owner has a proportional interest in the issuing company. Corporations sell shares to raise funds for the operation of their businesses.
How can I trade CFD-shares?
Let’s take Apple (AAPL. OQ) as an example. Let’s say the price per share at this point is 170 US dollars. Suppose you decide to buy a lot of 1 lot of the Apple CFD product (long) – that’s the equivalent of one stock or 170 US dollars. Let’s say Apple’s value, and thus the value of the CFD, rises to 190 U.S. dollars. Now, assume you decide to close your long position at 190 USD. The difference is +20 USD, which will be your profit. As with other CFD products, you only have rights to the difference between the purchase price and the selling price of the shares. You have no right to the actual shares.
