Markets

Crypto

Bitcoin and ether against the dollar, traded as CFDs from the same terminal — no wallet, no exchange account.

What you are trading

Crypto

A crypto CFD tracks the price of a digital asset in dollars. There is no coin to hold, no wallet to secure and no exchange withdrawal: the position lives in your trading account like any other instrument.

Traded as a CFD: you take a position on the price, you never own the underlying asset.

  • The underlying market runs at the weekend, unlike every other market on this page.

  • Price swings are routinely larger here than in currencies or indices.

  • Leverage on crypto is usually set lower than on other markets, and varies by country of residence.

How it trades with us
