One of the advantages of trading with a regulated broker is that you know you are contracting with a reliable and reputable provider in a regulated environment, which has strict rules and regulations designed, in particular, to protect the interests of retail clients.
A contract for difference (CFD) is a contract between two parties, typically described as ""buyer"" and ""seller"", stipulating that the seller will pay the buyer the difference between the current value of an asset and its value at contract time (if the difference is negative, then the buyer pays instead to the seller).
When investing in CFDs, the key word is ‘difference’ and this means that you are, in fact, not actually buying the physical asset, but instead, you are taking a position on the value of the underlying asset.
In effect, CFDs are financial derivatives that allow traders to take advantage of prices moving up (long positions) or prices moving down (short positions) on underlying financial instruments (a futures contract) whereby differences in settlement are made through cash payments, rather than by the delivery of physical goods or securities.
That is, your profit or loss is determined by the difference between the price at which you enter a trade and the price at which you exit.
For example, if you believe the price of gold is going to increase against the US dollar (USD), you will buy gold and sell the USD, for a set price.
You do not ‘own’ a piece of gold but instead, you have opened a contract for a specific price with the view that when you sell it back, the price of gold would have risen and you will receive the profit.
Dividends are the portion of corporate profits that are distributed to shareholders, and the cut-off date for share ownership in order to qualify for a dividend is known as ex-dividend date.
If you have a CFD position open on the ex-dividend date, an adjustment will be made to your account in regards with the dividend or distribution attributable to the related instrument in the underlying market.
If you hold a long position you will receive the dividend as a positive adjustment to your account.
However, if you hold a short position there will be a negative adjustment to your account for the dividend.
