Trading cryptocurrencies via CFDs (Contracts for Difference) is a new way to trade this volatile market.

IVT Markets offers cryptocurrency CFDs in major assets like Bitcoin, XRP (Ripple), Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin and Ethereum, for positions against the US Dollar and Australian Dollar.
In this case, the price moved in your favor. But, had the price declined instead, moving against your prediction, you could have made a loss. This continuous evaluation of price movements and resultant profit/loss happens daily. Accordingly, it leads to a net return (positive/negative) on your initial margin. In the loss scenario where your Free equity, (Equity – Margin) falls below the margin requirements (14799,88), the broker will issue a margin call. If you fail to deposit the money, and the market moves further against you, when your free equity reach the 50% of your initial margin the contract will be closed at the current market price, known as “stop out.”

They work using the same concept as other Contracts for Difference (CFDs). You are trading on the difference in price of a Cryptocurrency from the time a trade is opened and closed. Cryptocurrency CFDs allow you to predict the future change in value of a nominated Cryptocurrency. With interest constantly growing in this emerging asset class, increased levels of liquidity are resulting in lower trading costs. Learn How to Buy and Sell Cryptocurrency using CFDs.
Trading Crypto CFDs offers several benefits. Unlike trading fiat currencies, you do not own the underlying asset. The benefit of this is that you do not need a Crypto wallet, removing the need to store the asset. In addition, you can trade in rising and falling prices. This creates more trading opportunities in an asset which is considered high risk and volatile.
