Contract size


Guest BZ2

Question

Hi,

I have just opened a Demo account and learning to trade.

For CFD trades, when I select 1 in the size does that mean I’m entering a contract and if 2, means I’m entering 2 contracts?

Hey, 

With CFD contracts have different sizes for example: 

Shares: 1 means 1 share 

But the other markets have contract sizes which you can check on the deal ticket:

So here you can see if you chose Oil ($10) that means if you opened one contract ever point movement would be (1 x $10) so $10 movement. 

If you had 5 Oil ($10) contracts each point movement would be (5 x $10) so $50 movement per point. 

All the best

    • #EURUSD: Peculiar PatternI spotted a cup & handle pattern on ⚠️EURUSD on 1H time frame.1.0777 - 1.0783 is its neckline.If the price breaks and closes above that, I will expect a bullish movement.Goals will be 1.0843 / 1.0894If the price sets a new low, the pattern will become invalid.
    • Joshua, where next with this trade, have you closed your position following the continued slide since 13th March?
