Risks

CFDs are complex products and are not suitable for all investors.

Don’t use money you can’t afford to lose. You could lose much more than your initial payment. You should only consider trading in CFDs if: 

  • you have extensive experience of trading in volatile markets,
  • you fully understand how they operate, including all the risks and costs involved,
  • you are aware that the greater the leverage, the greater the risk,
  • you understand that your position can be closed whether or not you agree with the provider’s decision to close your position,
  • you have sufficient time to manage your investment on an active basis.

Please read the following risk warnings issued by the CSSF as well as EU authorities:
